Organic Baby Greens, Toasted Walnuts, Kalamata Olives, Feta
Dressed with Roasted Walnut Oil and a Splash of Red Wine Vinegar
La Tourangelle handcrafts this Roasted Walnut Oil in California strictly following the 150-year-old traditional methods of its French sister oil mill. It is slowly roasted, expeller-pressed and lightly filtered.
I have to admit I was in an oil rut. Olive oil will still remain number one in my kitchen, but this flavorful roasted oil is exceptional in salads and I also look forward to using it in pasta dishes as well. I plan to try their Roasted Pistachio and Toasted Pumpkin Seed oils, too.
How do you like my fabulous new platter?
A gift from FA. Thanks FA!
It is Mikasa China, Venice Pattern, Made in Japan.
I especially like the way the food reflects off the black rim.

Handsome platter indeed! And the food atop is also handsome!
Hi Laurie – I’ll have to check it out at TJ’s. I’m looking forward to experimenting with it!
Hi FA – thanks as always 🙂
LL, You are very welcome. However, your food would look great on a paper plate! Thanks for sharing you artistry and your culinary expertise.

Like Marie I also get mine from Trader Joes. The can and description are very similar to La Tourangelle’s. After reading your post yesterday I used my walnut oil in a sauce and it tasted wonderful!
Great post, gorgeous salad and beautiful platter!!
Hi Jessy – thank you, this salad is one of my favorites.
Hi Simona – I think you will like this oil. The salad tastes completely different with it than with olive oil, a nice complement to the walnuts in the salad.
Hi Marie – I have to look at Trader Joe’s.
Oh, muffins? hmmm. That sounds like a great idea.
