Smoked Salmon Salad with Blackberries & Hazelnuts

This salad is wild. A brick of smoked salmon is already fully cooked and easy to flake, and it pairs beautifully with jammy blackberries and toasted hazelnuts. 

What You Get

Shallot 

Lemon 

Frisée lettuce 

Blackberries 

Toasted hazelnuts 

Smoked wild salmon (see note below) 

Goat cheese 

What You’ll Need

Dijon mustard

Extra-virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Makes 3 servings

Active Time: 20 minutes 

Total Time: 20 minutes 

Step 1

Make a quick vinaigrette: Mince the shallot. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons shallot, 1 teaspoon mustard, the juice of ½ lemon, and ¼ cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to let the flavors combine. 

Step 2

Trim the base of the frisée and tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. Slice the blackberries in half. Chop the hazelnuts. Flake the salmon, discarding the skin.

Step 3 

Add the frisée, blackberries, and hazelnuts to the bowl with the vinaigrette, toss to coat, and season with salt to taste. Heap the salad on plates, and top with the salmon. Crumble the goat cheese on top, grind with pepper, and serve. 

Contains: milk, fish, tree nuts. 

Note: The salmon may arrive frozen for freshness. Store it in the refrigerator to defrost before cooking. If you need to defrost it same day, place the sealed package in a bowl of cold water, and leave the tap running in a thin stream for about 30 minutes.
