Directions
1) Wash and dry the lettuce leaves; cut or tear into bite-size pieces and place into a salad bowl.
Add the remaining ingredients and toss lightly.
NOTE: Lightly toasted sesame seeds may be substituted for the walnuts.
To make moretum more authentically, use only two lettuce leaves; place them and the remaining green ingredients into a blender and blend well.
Transfer to a mixing bowl, and add the cheese and ground pepper.
Form into a ball.
Add the vinegar and oil in sparing amounts.
