Chive dressing
1 small clove garlic
2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon creme fraiche
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon chopped chives
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pinch sea salt and black pepper, plus more to taste
Salad
1 Granny Smith apple, chopped
1 Hass avocado, chopped
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 English cucumber, chopped
1/4 cup chopped pistachios
1/4 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese, room temperature
1 pinch salt and black pepper, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons chopped chives, for garnish (optional)

1
In a blender, add in the garlic, Champagne vinegar, creme fraiche, honey, chives, salt, and pepper. Blend until combined.
2
With the blender still on, through the top, stream in the olive oil. Blend until combined. Taste for salt and pepper. Set aside.
3
Toss the apple and avocado in the lemon juice so they don't oxidize. Then, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and toss with the chive dressing. You may not have to use all of the dressing-I don't like mine too wet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with some chopped chives. This salad can be made up to 3 to 4 hours in advance. If you are making the salad in advance add in the room temperature gorgonzola when you serve the salad.
