Cold Smoked Venison Salad
Product Description
80 to 100g of cold smoked venison per person (thinly sliced)
16 snow-peas
12 asparagus spears
Watercress
4 white peaches
1 red onion (thinly sliced)
Vinaigrette
½ cup of sun-dried cranberries
4 tablespoons champagne vinegar
12 tablespoons (180ml) hazelnut oil
½ tsp of sweet mustard
Salt and pepper
Poach the peaches in simple syrup for about 15 minutes and cool completely in the liquid. Peel and halve, remove the stone and slice into 8 slices. Squeeze a little lemon juice over to ensure they keep their color.
Blanch the peas and asparagus and pick nice sprigs of cress. Chill. Combine all the salad ingredients and interleave the smoked venison. Garnish with the vinaigrette.
Serve well chilled with a glass of Sauterne.
