ARUGULA SALAD AND ULTIMATE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine the shallot, mustard, vinegar, oil, sugar, honey and salt and pepper in a jar and shake to emulsify.
• Toss arugula with vinaigrette, to taste.

SIMPLE ARUGULA AND APPLE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the arugula, apple, and chives in a large mixing bowl. Dress with the vinaigrette, making sure to lightly toss the greens but thoroughly incorporate the dressing.
• Apple Cider Vinaigrette
• Bring the apple cider to a boil in a small pot over mediumhigh heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid reduces by half, about 12 minutes.
• Pour the cider into a small mixing bowl. Add the vinegar, mustard, and salt and whisk vigorously. While continuing to whisk, slowly drizzle the olive oil into the bowl until completely incorporated.
• QUICK TIP
• The Dijon mustard does more than add a vibrant note to the vinaigrette. It provides a stable base that helps the oil and vinegar emulsify, creating that smooth, creamy texture that you want in a vinaigrette. A well-emulsified vinaigrette also evenly coats the lettuce leaves for a balanced salad. Try adding a teaspoon to your basic vinegar-and-olive-oil dressing for a smoother result.

RADISH VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Juice the radishes until you have 2 tablespoons of radish juice.
• In a bowl, combine the radish juice with the Champagne vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced fresh thyme, and honey. Whisk the ingredients together and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Pour vinaigrette over salad, and toss to coat. Drizzle with additional oil and lemon juice if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
