Servings: 4

Preparation duration: 10 minutes

 

Ingredients:

5 ounces arugula (about 5 cups)

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

4 medium carrots, shaved into ribbons (about 8 to 10 ounces) or 1 cup grated carrots (if you're in a hurry, you can use the pre-bagged grated carrots)

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

1 tablespoon chopped mild fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, or tarragon (optional)

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1/2 medium lemon)

3 tablespoons chopped sunflower seeds or chopped nuts—toasted and chopped walnuts, pecans, and pistachios are all delicious (optional)

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/3 cup large Parmesan cheese shavings (see pictures—don't skip this, and the better the quality of the cheese, the better the salad! I like to shave mine right off of the block with a vegetable peeler)

Equipment:

bowl

measuring cup

canning jar

whisk

Cooking instruction summary:

Place the arugula, carrots, and tomatoes in a large bowl. In a small bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the dressing ingredients: lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and salt. (Alternatively, you can shake them all together in a mason jar with a tight-fitting lid). Drizzle enough over the arugula to moisten it, then toss to combine. Sprinkle Parmesan and any desired nuts or herbs over the top. Serve immediately with a drizzle of extra dressing as desired.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
