  • About

Freshen the palate between the main course and dessert with this simple salad. I would serve it with a whole cheese (or part of one), such as Vacherin, chèvre, unpasteurized Camembert or Brie - whatever happens to be in really perfect condition on the day. Accompany it with water biscuits and unsalted butter.

Ingredients

  • 4 bunches watercress
  • 3 shallots, peeled and finely chopped
  • black pepper
  • 6</

Method

Wash and dry the watercress, selecting only the tender tips for the salad. Pile loosely in a bowl and scatter with the shallots. Add a little coarsely ground black pepper. Mix the olive oil with the fruit juices, and set aside. Pour over the salad just before serving and toss well.
