Torn Escarole Salad with Warm Bacon Vinaigrette

I really enjoy cooking and trying new things. I love my foodi, instant pot, dutch oven, and my crepe maker :) I love making meals from scratch and enjoying the fruits of my labor.

6 cups torn crusty Italian bread

⅓ cup hot chile-sesame oil (such as S&B La-Yu Chili Oil) or olive oil

¾ teaspoon kosher salt, divided

4 thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon slices, cut into ½-inch pieces

¼ cup finely chopped shallot

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons apple butter or 2 teaspoons honey

1 ½ tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard

6 cups torn escarole

2 small Honeycrisp apples, cut into matchsticks

4 ounces mild blue cheese (such as Gorgonzola dolce), crumbled (about 1 cup)
