If you make walnut oil salad in the autumn when the walnuts have just been picked, the tender and juicy white flesh of the nuts are at their best.
This salad is traditional to the Périgord region, in the south-west of France. Due to walnuts growing in abundance here!!
* a mixture of lettuce, enough for 4 people
* 1 tablespoon of walnut oil
* 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
* 12 walnuts, chopped into rough pieces
* 1 tablespoon of wine vinegar
* some salt and pepper
