Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the pecans
out on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until they smell nutty,
7 to 10 minutes. Stir the pecans once or twice as they toast. Transfer
the pan to a wire rack to cool.
In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, shallots, salt and pepper.
Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking to incorporate. Taste and correct
the seasonings.
In a large bowl, toss together the greens, pears, cheese and dressing.
Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Sprinkle the nuts
on top and serve immediately.
Makes 4 servings.
