Smoky bacon, tangy Dijon, and maple syrup cut the bitter and pepper notes of the lettuces. Quality ingredients make all the difference in this simple salad, so splurge on extra-virgin olive oil, real maple syrup, and real-wood-smoked bacon. Ingredients:
4 slices center-cut bacon |
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
2 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
2 tablespoons maple syrup |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 garlic clove, minced |
4 cups (1/2-inch) diagonally cut belgian endive |
3 cups chopped radicchio |
1 cup trimmed watercress |
Directions:
1. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bacon to pan; cook until crisp. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 2 teaspoons drippings in pan; coarsely chop bacon. Combine 2 teaspoons drippings, oil, and next 6 ingredients (through garlic) in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add remaining ingredients; toss well. Sprinkle with chopped bacon.
