Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until fragrant and lightly golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  2. Step 2

    Slice endive crosswise into 1-inch pieces, keeping the base intact so leaves stay together.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk shallot, sherry vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Slowly drizzle in olive oil while whisking until emulsified and smooth.

  5. Step 5

    Arrange endive on two plates. Drizzle with vinaigrette, then scatter blue cheese and toasted walnuts over top.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately while endive is crisp.
