Ingredients:
- 1 baking potato (about 1/2 lb), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
- 1 head romaine lettuce (about 1 1/4 lb), cut crosswise into 1/2-inch strips (about 3 quarts)
Directions:
- In a small frying pan, toast the nuts over moderately low heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Or toast them in a 350° oven for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Put the potato in a medium pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine one third of the blue cheese with the vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and then gradually whisk in the oil. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing. Add the romaine to the rest of the dressing and toss. Transfer to a platter or salad bowl.
- Toss the watercress with the reserved dressing. Arrange the remaining blue cheese, the watercress, walnuts, potato, onions, avocado, and pear slices on top of the lettuce.
- Wine Recommendation: There's only one grape we can think of that can handle blue cheese, walnuts, avocado, and vinegar. Riesling it is, and an off-dry kabinett from Germany's Mosel is the one you want.
