SIMPLE ARUGULA AND APPLE SALAD



Simple Arugula and Apple Salad image

Categories     Salad     Sandwich     Apple     Arugula     Simmer     Boil

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 5-ounce bag prewashed baby arugula
1 Fuji apple, cored, quartered, seeded, and thinly sliced
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives
1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinaigrette (recipe follows)
Apple Cider Vinaigrette
3/4 cup apple cider
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup olive oil
(makes 1 1/2 cups)

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.
