Preparation

Mix all ingredients for the vinagrette either in a small food processor or in a bowl with a whisk.

Mix together blue cheese, walnuts, pear, and ¼ cup chopped endive and toss with vinagrette. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste. Cut the ends off the other two endive heads and separate leaves to make “serving spoons.” Place a tablespoon of salad into the “endive spoon.” Arrange on serving plate, garnish with parsley and enjoy.
