Moving right along.

When I saw that sun dried tomatoes and roquefort were ingredients in this salad, I was immediately intrigued.

Add to that the stem ginger, honey and pear and you have a unique and very vibrant tasting salad. So good.

Pear, Roquefort And Sun Dried Tomato Salad With Honey-Ginger Dressing

Ingredients:

2 ripe pears (peeled if you like)
8 sundried tomatoes, sliced
Romaine lettuce, chopped
handful of arugula, chopped
75g Roquefort cheese

Ingredients for dressing:

2 Tbs honey
½ tsp stem ginger, chopped
1 Tbs stem ginger syrup
1 Tbs extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

1. Slice the pears, remove the stalk and quarter.

2. Cut each pear quarter into half lengthways and set aside.

3. Place lettuce into a serving bowl and toss with the pears and sundried tomatoes. Crumble Roquefort over the top.

4. To prepare the dressing, place all the ingredients into a small bowl and whisk to combine. Pour over the salad and toss.

Serves 4

Brooklyn band Crystal Stilts play noisy, hazy, fun music. Shake The Shackles is from their 2010 7″ release.

How is this for an album cover?

Crystal Stilts have a new EP out, called ‘Radiant Door’, which sounds quite promising.
