Crack the walnuts, remove the kernels, roughly chop, and briefly toast in a hot pan. Remove and set aside. You can also use walnuts from the bag. Dice the Gorgonzola. Slice the pears. Melt the sugar in the pan, caramelize until light brown, and deglaze with balsamic vinegar. Add the pears and cook for about 10 minutes. Add a little more balsamic vinegar if desired. Wash and trim the lamb’s lettuce and arugula, and divide them between 4 plates. Top with the pears, juice, and diced Gorgonzola. Scatter the walnuts over the salad and drizzle each portion with a little walnut oil. Delicious with game, duck, and sauerbraten. It can also be served as a main course with baguette, but then it only serves two people.
