It is better to choose a juicy and ripe pear, medium or late varieties. It's good if it's a sweet fruit.
So, let's start cooking a light vitamin salad.
1. My chicory heads, we separate the leaves. We put them in a bowl, fill them with ice water. We leave it for about 10 minutes, after which we drain the water and lay out the leaves on a paper towel so that excess moisture goes away.
2. Wash the pear, peel it off. We remove the peduncle, cut out the core with the seeds. Cut the fruit into thin slices.
3. Squeeze the juice out of half a lemon. We break the Roquefort cheese into pieces. Peeled walnuts are coarsely chopped with a knife.
4. The chicory leaves are carefully laid out on a serving platter. Here we lay out slices of pears and pieces of cheese. Pour all the ingredients with lemon juice. Sprinkle with walnuts and season with ground black pepper.
