Instructions

Make the dressing

  1. To make the honey vinaigrette, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Make the salad

  1. First, thoroughly clean the salad leaves. To do so, simply fill a large sink with cold water and allow the leaves to stand for a few minutes so dirt settles in the middle. Repeat the process until all the salad leaves are clean.
  2. Transfer the leaves to a colander and allow them to drain. Use your hands to remove any dirt sticking on top of the leaves as well as any long roots.
  3. Using a pan, fry the bacon until crispy and well browned. Remove from the pan and set aside (see notes). Slice the eggs.
  4. Assemble the Nüsslisalat, bacon, eggs, boiled eggs, and chopped walnuts on a plate or in a salad bowl. Top with some croutons (optional) and the balsamic and honey sauce. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Bacon is normally fatty so you can easily fry it without having to use extra oil. Use a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to fry,  in case you are using lean bacon. 
  • While the salad leaves can actually be bought and kept in the fridge for 2-3 days, I actually recommend buying them on the day you intend to make the salad. This is because Nüsslisalat tends to get soggy quickly.
  • Add the dressing just before serving.
