Roast the walnuts in a pan until light brown, then let cool. Wash the pears, quarter them, remove the cores, and thinly slice them. Drizzle with a little lemon juice. In a bowl, combine the pears, onions, thyme, and the cooled walnuts. Crumble or dice the cheese and sprinkle over the salad. Ladle into serving bowls. Make a marinade with the olive oil and orange juice and drizzle over the salad. Garnish with the chives and orange segments. Serve with some baguette. Note: We always serve this salad on Christmas Eve as a starter for roast venison.
