chop up hazelnuts (mortar & pestle if you have one)
place in a small pan or small dish for oven
put in oven for 5 minutes OR in a small saute pan for 10 or so
let hazelnuts cool on the side
grab a wider (bigger) saute pan, turn the eye on medium
& swab some butter inside
pour grapes in when it's hot and let site for a minute or two
saute for 5 - 7 minutes & let cool a bit
combine in a good size bowl all 3 ingredients

*dress it up*
this dressing is definitely taste as you go
you can do 2 tbs of each ingredient
white wine vinegar//honey//olive oil
add salt and maybe some lemon
you can add a little more of the vinegar
