Ingredients

  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup walnuts, halved
  • 2 pears, peeled, cored and cut in quarters
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 3 whole peppercorns
  • 2 Tbs brown sugar
  • 2 cups ruby port
  • 8 cups frisée
  • 3 Tbs red wine vinegar
  • 3 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 green onions, sliced thin

Directions

  • In a medium-size saucepan, combine the peppers and salt with the maple syrup. Over medium heat, simmer for 5 minutes. Add and thoroughly coat the nuts. Transfer the nuts to a wire rack, allowing them to dry individually and drain slightly.
