Rocket Pear Salad - Rejigged for the Weather!

All green, raw food does not have to flee from your kitchen just because it's cold.

Yes, the weather definitely affects what you feel like eating but salad can still comfort and nurture you even when you're putting an electric blanket on the couch. (Try this! It's excellent!)

On today's episode Yumi revisits one of the GOAT salads. The classic. Rocket, Pear and Walnut. It appears in her cookbook Endless Summer. But she's giving it a rejig to make it more weather-appropriate.

THE SALAD

240g rocket leaves

2 firm pears, sliced into chips

3/4 cup of walnuts, refreshed by being toasted under the grill for 2-3 minutes

between 1/2 cup - 3/4 cup grated Grana Padano or Parmesan Cheese

THE DRESSING (enough for 3 salads, so only use a third of this!)

40ml White Balsamic Vinegar

80ml of your best olive oil

1tsp honey

3/4tsp salt

2tbs tahini
