Lunch: Boston Lettuce Wedges with Zinfandel Vinaigrette and Stilton

Recipe by Paul Grimes We'll admit it—we all love a wedge of iceberg with blue-cheese dressing. So there's no need to apologize for serving this beautiful plate of sweet lettuce, slices of good Stilton, and toasted walnuts, along with an excellent vinaigr

Ingredients

2 large heads Boston lettuce
3 tablespoons Zinfandel vinegar or other good-quality red-wine vinegar (preferably "O" brand)
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup walnut oil
1 cup walnut pieces, toasted
1/4 pound Stilton, crumbled or shaved (with a cheese plane)

Instructions

Quarter lettuce heads lengthwise, keeping stem ends attached. Carefully wash in cold water, then dry in a salad spinner.
Whisk together vinegar, shallot, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper, then add oils in a slow stream, whisking until combined.
Spoon vinaigrette over lettuce wedges, then scatter with nuts and cheese.
