Mesclun Salad With Truffle Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

Steps:

• In a small saute pan add 2 tablespoons whole butter, dash of cayenne, 3 tablespoons sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the 1/2 cup of pecans. Cook this slowly over a very low flame, taking care to stir carefully and occasionally. The sugar will burn easily if the flame is too hot. On a stable cutting board, julienne the red pepper and then peel and section the 2 oranges. Squeeze the remaining orange pulp over a large bowl and to this add the 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss the salad greens in this and then place on a salad plate. Arrange the oranges and red bell pepper slices on the top and garnish with the caramelized pecan halves. Allow the pecans to cool before eating.

Steps:

• Whisk together all ingredients except mesclun in a large bowl until combined. Just before serving, add greens and toss to coat.

Steps:

• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the vinegars, mustard and truffle juice in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the truffle oil. (You should obtain an emulsified vinaigrette thick enough to coat the back of a spoon; if too thick, whisk in more truffle juice or water.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To make the salad, clean dirt from the mushrooms and, depending on their size, either slice them or cut into julienne. Set aside.
• In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and cook until it just begins to turn brown. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, only until thoroughly warm and slightly tender. Add the shallots and remove from heat. Transfer the mushrooms to a mixing bowl and toss with half the vinaigrette and half the chives. Season with salt and pepper.
• In another bowl, toss the greens with the remaining vinaigrette and chives. Divide among 4 plates and top with mushrooms. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine the baby greens in a salad bowl. In a mini food processor, pulse together the shallot, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, zest and cayenne. Add the olive oil and pulse again to combine.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the olive oil, white-wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons dried cranberries, and sugar. Process until the dressing is pink and cranberries are very finely chopped. Season with salt and pepper.
