Ingredients
-
For the Panzanella
-
8 oz cornbread, torn or cut into ¼” chunks
-
5 oz arugula
-
1 head of seasonal leaf lettuce, torn
-
½ lb pecorino romano, shaved thinly
-
1lb radishes, sliced
-
1 bunch mint, roughly chopped
-
1 bunch basil, roughly chopped
-
For the Vinaigrette
-
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
-
3 Tbs lemon juice
-
1 Tbs white wine vinegar
-
1 tsp dijon mustard
-
1 Tbs of the best blackberry jam you can find
-
Kosher Salt and Fresh Black Pepper to taste
Steps
-
Preheat your oven to 325F.
-
In a large mixing bowl, toss the cornbread chunks with a large pinch of salt and coat gently in olive oil. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until dry and slightly caramelized for about 20 minutes.
-
When they’re done they should be reminiscent of croutons, with slightly more chew. Once done, set aside and let them cool to room temperature.
-
In a separate mixing bowl, add the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, and jam - whisking everything together to incorporate. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to make a loose cohesive vinaigrette.
-
Season with salt and pepper until it tastes good to you, adding a little more vinegar or lemon juice if desired.
-
Toss all ingredients together in a large salad bowl and coat with the dressing. Enjoy!
