Shaved Kohlrabi And Arugula Salad With Chunky Garlic And Pimenton Dressing Food

SHAVED KOHLRABI AND ARUGULA SALAD WITH CHUNKY GARLIC AND PIMENTON DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Remove 1 garlic clove from 1 head, and very finely grate, setting aside 1/8 teaspoon. Wrap remaining heads of garlic in foil, and roast until very soft and golden inside, about 1 hour. Unwrap; let cool.
• Meanwhile, whisk together grated garlic, lemon zest and juice, paprika, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Squeeze roasted garlic from skins, and add 2 tablespoons to bowl, reserving remainder for another use. Stir to combine but leave very chunky. Stir in oil (do not completely incorporate).
• Shave kohlrabi very thinly on a mandoline. Divide among 4 plates; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spoon dressing over kohlrabi, then top with arugula leaves and almonds.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH SHAVED PARMESAN AND BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a small stainless steel or glass bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic until the sugar and salt are dissolved. While continuing to whisk, add the olive oil in a thin, steady stream until emulsified. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
• Place the arugula in a large salad bowl and toss with some of the vinaigrette. Divide the salad among serving plates and garnish with shaved Parmesan. Serve immediately.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH SHAVED MANCHEGO

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk honey and vinegar until combined. Whisk in oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Add arugula and sun-dried tomatoes. Using a vegetable peeler, thinly shave the Manchego; add half to the bowl, and toss to combine. Divide among 4 serving plates; top with remaining Manchego. Serve immediately.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• In a small jar or bowl, combine lemon zest and juice with olive oil, coarse salt, and ground pepper; shake or whisk to combine.
• Wash arugula and remove stems; place leaves in a large bowl. With a vegetable peeler, shave Parmesan cheese over arugula; toss with dressing. Garnish with more grated zest, if desired.
