James Strawbridge’s Fancy Blue Cheese Salad
Serves 2-4
Ingredients:
- 140g Cotswold blue brie
- ½ melon, sliced
- 1/2 cucumber, sliced
- 55g hartgrove coppa
- 50g smoked almonds
- Large handful of baby watercress
- Large handful of baby salad leaves
- 1 tbsp mint, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp tarragon, finely chopped
For the dressing:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- ½ tsp honey
- Pinch of sea salt
Serving suggestion:
Method:
- Remove your cheese from the fridge at least 30 minutes before assembling this salad. Make your dressing by whisking the oil, vinegar and honey, and season to taste with sea salt.
- Toss your blue veined cheese in tarragon and mint, and then in a large bowl gently fold with all the other salad ingredients. Dress generously with your vinaigrette and serve immediately with a chilled glass of Sharpham Dart Valley Reserve.
