Salad in a Jar with Brown-Butter-Roasted Peanuts and Asian Pear

Salad in a jar is the perfect dish for entertaining. You make the individual salads up to 24 hours ahead of time. Put on the lids and refrigerate. Serve the salads in the jars, instructing your guests to invert them onto their plates. The dressing at the bottom of the jar will be the last thing out and will gently splash every morsel. This particular salad has a slight Asian influence of peanuts, Asian pear, sesame oil and bean sprouts. This salad is fantastic with the Columbia Crest Grand Estates 2012 Unoaked Chardonnay. The brown butter roasted peanuts highlight the creaminess of the wine and the pear brings out its lovely white fruit flavors.
