Ingredients
Blue Cheese Dressing
Instructions
  1. Heat a small non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the hazelnuts and toast, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes, until fragrant. Immediately tip the hazelnuts out onto a clean tea towel and rub them to remove the papery skins. Coarsely chop the nuts and set aside.
  2. To make the dressing, combine the blue cheese and water in a large bowl and mash to a smooth paste using the back of a spoon. Stir in the yogurt to make a thick, fairly smooth dressing. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Stir the fennel and witlof into the dressing. Core and thinly slice the apples, then add to the bowl. Gently toss to coat with the dressing. Fold in the hazelnuts.
  4. Arrange the radicchio leaves on four plates. Top with the salad and sprinkle with the chives. Serve at once.
Recipe Notes

Tip: You can toss the hazelnuts beforehand and store them in an airtight container. Prepare the dressing several hours in advance and refrigerate it until you are ready to assemble the salad.
