Ingredients:

Serving

3 bunches arugula (about 6 cups packed), tough stems discarded, rinsed and dried
1 belgian endive, separated into leaves
sherry-walnut oil dressing, recipe follows
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 oz goat cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
caramelized walnuts , recipe follows
1 1/2 tsp creole mustard
1 tbsp sherry vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp walnut oil
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 - cup walnut halves
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
pinch cayenne
1 - tsp walnut oil

Directions:

Toss the arugula and endive in a bowl with the dressing and the salt and pepper. Divide the greens among 4 salad plates. Top each serving with goat cheese and the caramelized nuts. Serve.
Sherry-Walnut Oil Dressing:
In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, vinegar and salt. Whisk in the walnut oil and olive oil, beating to emulsify.
Caramelized walnuts:
In a medium skillet, cook the walnuts, brown sugar, salt, cayenne and 1 teaspoon of walnut oil over medium-high heat. Cook until the sugar caramelizes and coats the nuts, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to separate the nuts. Transfer to a baking sheet covered with waxed paper to cool. (Note: Caramelized nuts will keep in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for several days.)
