  6. Peel and slice fuyu persimmons.

  1. Combine frisée and mixed greens in a salad bowl.
  2. Add in persimmons, pecans, onions, goat cheese, and pomegranate seeds.
  3. Drizzle dressing. Toss with salad tongs until combined.

Notes

  • Whenever you use nuts in anything you should always toast them. A quick bake brings out some much flavor in any nut and enhances the texture too!
  • Preheat oven to 350F/175C
  • Arrange nuts on a baking tray
  • Bake for about 5 minutes, remove from oven and mix around on tray. Nuts close to the edge of pan will brown and then burn first.
  • Bake an additional 5 minutes or until most nits darken in color a bit.
