Endive Salad with Fresh Goat Cheese & Black Gold Syrup

Serves 2 | Preparation: 15 minutes | No cooking required

Ingredients

  • 2 beautiful endives (for crispness and freshness)

  • 1 crisp apple (Gala or Granny Smith type for acidity)

  • 100g artisanal fresh goat cheese

  • A handful of crushed walnuts

  • A few sprigs of chopped chives

For the dressing:

  • 1 tablespoon of Black Gold Syrup (Maison Boteh)

  • 2 tablespoons of walnut oil (or extra virgin olive oil)

  • 1 teaspoon of cider vinegar

  • A pinch of fleur de sel and freshly ground pepper


Preparation

  1. The Heart of the Salad: Remove the base of the endives and cut them into sections or separate the leaves for a rosette presentation. Place them in a large bowl of cold lemon water to maintain their freshness, then drain gently.

  2. The Fruity Touch: Cut the apple into thin slices (julienne style or thin wedges) without peeling to preserve the skin's color, reminiscent of watercolor shades.

  3. Assembly: Arrange the endives in a deep dish or on a linen tablecloth. Harmoniously distribute the apple slices. Crumble the fresh goat cheese over top with your fingers for a rustic and generous look.

  4. The Final Alchemy: In a small bowl, emulsify the oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Pour this dressing over the salad. The final touch: Using a spoon, drizzle a generous amount of Black Gold Syrup over everything. Its dark and dense texture will coat the cheese and apple,

  5. The Detail: Sprinkle with crushed walnuts and chives for a touch of spring green.
