3. Preparation of arugula with pear and blue cheese

Arugula with pear and blue cheese is a good and light salad of European cuisine. Although not equivalent, but still a worthy replacement for the Arugula with Shrimp salad. An unusual combination of spicy-mustard taste of arugula, pear sweetness and blue cheese will not leave you indifferent. You can use any blue cheese, Roquefort, Dor Blue, Gorgonzola, etc.

For salad dressing, just mix olive oil with lemon juice. Or use the caramel left after roasting the pear. On top, the salad can be sprinkled with sesame, pine nuts, or cashew nuts. Before adding nuts to a salad, I advise you to lightly fry in a dry frying pan.

Ingredients for 1 serving

• Arugula 40 gr.
• Pear 100 gr.
• Blue cheese 50 gr.
• Sesame 5 gr. (can be replaced with nuts)
• Butter 30 gr.
• Sugar 15 gr. (can be replaced with honey)
• Balsamic cream 10 ml.

Dressing for arugula

• Olive oil Extra Virgin 10 ml.
• Lemon juice 10 ml. (can be replaced with orange juice)
• Salt and pepper to taste.

Preparation of arugula with pear and blue cheese

Cut the pear into slices, 1.5-2 cm thick.

Cut blue cheese into cubes or break into large pieces.

Make a refill. Mix olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Now fry the pear. To do this, melt butter in a frying pan, add sugar. Once the sugar has dissolved, put the pear into the pan and fry on both sides until soft. If you decide to use honey instead of sugar, then add it at the very end of cooking. That is, first fry the pear in butter, and only then pour honey over it.

On a plate, apply a pattern of balsamic cream in thin lines. Top with arugula and flank roasted pear and blue cheese. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with dressing, or use the caramel in which the pear was fried, or use both dressings at once.

Arugula with pear and blue cheese is ready.

Bon Appetit!
