Ingredients

  • 1 small garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • a 1/4-pound piece of Parmesan, sliced 1/8 inch thick and cut into 1/8-inch dice (about 1 cup)

  • 4 Belgian endives
  • 1 cup walnuts, toasted lightly and chopped fine
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves

Directions

In a bowl whisk together garlic paste, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and oil and stir in Parmesan and celery. Salad may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
