Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup white wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
8 cups arugula
4 cups bite-size pieces radicchio, from 1 (10-ounce) head
1 carrot, peeled
1 hothouse cucumber, peeled

Steps:

  • Blend the basil, vinegar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually blend in the oil.
  • Place the arugula and radicchio in a wide shallow bowl. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the carrot over the salad. Shave the cucumber into a medium bowl. Pat the cucumber shavings with paper towels to absorb the excess moisture. Add the cucumbers to the salad.
  • Do-Ahead Tip: The vinaigrette and salad can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate. Whisk the dressing to blend before using.
  • Toss the salad with enough dressing to coat. Season the salad, to taste, with salt and pepper, and serve.
