Ingredients

VINAIGRETTE

  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon or whole grain mustard
  • 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon unfiltered apple cider vinegar
  • 1 large garlic clove (minced)
  • 1 small shallot (minced)
  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground pepper

SALAD

  • Coarse sea salt
  • Pepper
  • 1/2 cup lightly packed (Italian or flat leaf parsley, chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme (rosemary, or oregano, coarsely chopped)
  • 4 cups baby kale (mustard greens, Belgian or curly endive, chopped)
  • 6 cups lightly packed arugula or spinach (4 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions

Instructions

  1. In a blender food processor, combine the first 5 ingredients with 
2 tablespoons of water. With the machine on, drizzle in both oils until incorporated. For a thinner vinaigrette, stir in another 1 to 2 tablespoons of water. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine all the greens (endive, arugula, kale, etc.) and scallions with 1 cup of the dressing. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Transfer the salad to a platter, top with the fresh herbs and serve with the remaining dressing at the table.
