Seattles Pike Place Market Salad Recipes

Steps:

• 1. WALNUTS: Place sugar in a small skillet over medium heat; cook 90 seconds or until sugar dissolves, stirring as needed so sugar dissolves evenly and doesn't burn. Reduce heat; stir in walnuts.

(This step can be done up to a day in advance and stored in an air-tight container.)
• 2. DRESSING: Place cider in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons (about 5 minutes). Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl; add to pan. Bring cider mixture to a boil, stirring constantly; cook 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Stir in shallots, vinegar, salt, and pepper; let cool. (This step can be done up to a day in advance and stored in refrigerator.).
• 3. SALAD: place salad mix in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing; toss gently to coat. Divide evenly among 4 plates; top with berries, cheese, and sugared walnuts. Serve immediately.
