This delightfuly and complex midsummer salad hits all the taste notes by using endive for the bitterness, tri-coloured lettuce for freshness, Roquefort, one of the most-prized French blue cheese for the saltiness, fersh apricots and honey for the sweetness and lemon for the tartness. Perfect to serve as a delicious meal or as a side dish. Roquefort, a world-famous blue cheese with pungent smell and a sharp tang, is traditionally made of sheep's milk. If you find this "King of Cheeses" is too strong for your taste, use other types of blue cheese or creamy tangy Lesbos Feta.

- Place all the ingredients for the dressing in a jar and stir until well combined. Set aside.
- Put your salad leaves and fresh herbs on a big platter. Drizzle 1/3 of the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together.
- Use the tip of a knife to crumble off little nuggets of Roquefort and let them fall straight on to your salad. Top with the apricot quarters and sprinkle the pink peppercorns over for a pop of colour. If desired, scatter a handful of candied or plain walnuts over.

That does look good. Never thought of making a salad with apricots.
I love how colorful and tantalizing it looks 😋
Happy Monday, Angie!
Hello,
I do love salads, this recipe sounds delicious. Take care, have a great day!
I am a great fan of both apricots and blue cheese but I have never combined the two. Perhaps I am overdue for a new taste treat!
that looks really good Angie
Looks delicious.
The dressing must be perfect in this salad!
Angie, this salad looks phenomenal! And the flavour? Spot on - really great pairings. I've made something similar with peaches, so I know this is 100% right up my alley!
This is right up my salad alley Angie! I love fruit and bleu cheese in salad, I will have to try apricots, it sounds delightful!
Angie, Sadly my dietary restrictions would leave me with the Roquefort cheese and the apricots...both of which I really do like. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
That honey thyme vinaigrette sounds amazing. I love the flavour of thyme. You've inspired me to try Roquefort again. When I tried it many years ago, I found it too strong, but my tastes have changed, plus I like sheep's milk cheese.
Apricots and all kinds of stone fruits must be in peak season now! I see you are making wonderful creations with them
This midsummer salad is a true symphony of flavors! The blend of endive, tri-colored lettuce, Roquefort cheese, fresh apricots, honey, and lemon creates a taste experience that's both vibrant and complex.
What a great mix of flavors in this salad - yummy!
Such a beautiful and flavorful salad.
I'm sure this is delicious, many thanks for the recipe idea.
All the best Jan
That looks so delicious. I love roquefort cheese
