WINTER beauties
We often lament the disappearance of summer fruit, but winter has its own crop of
sweet and satisfying produce (that doesn’t always get the attention it deserves).
May we introduce a few cold-weather fruits to look for this season?
Manchego, a
Spanish sheep-
milk cheese, has
a grassy, nutty
flavor. If you
can’t find it,
substitute Asiago
or pecorino.
ESCAROLE,
RADICCHIO, AND
FUYU PERSIMMON
SALAD
If you make a beeline
for the berries
at the salad bar,
Fuyu persimmons are
about to be your
new favorite salad
addition. They’re subtly
sweet to complement
bitter greens and
rich ingredients (like
walnuts and Manchego)
and firm enough
to hold their shape
when tossed.
