Earthy roasted mushrooms and crisp romaine tossed in a tangy vinaigrette
Hazelnut & Mushroom Salad recipe image

This Hazelnut & Mushroom Salad is a delightful celebration of earthy flavors and contrasting textures. The star is the roasted mushroom, which develops a deep, savory richness that pairs beautifully with the crunch of fresh romaine lettuce. A simple yet bold dressing made from salad oil, wine vinegar, and savory herb coats every bite, adding a bright acidity that cuts through the richness. While hazelnuts are hinted at in the title for a potential garnish, the core flavor profile relies on the aromatic blend of onion powder, pepper, and fresh herbs. It’s an effortless dish perfect for a light lunch, a picnic side, or a refreshing starter before a heavier main course.
