Print This Recipe
INGREDIENTS 1/2 pound fresh arugula, 3 large bunches
LEMON VINAIGRETTE
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, 2 lemons
1/2 cup good olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper1/4 pound chunk very good Parmesan cheese
If the arugula has roots attached, cut them off. Fill the sink with cold water and toss the arugula for a few minutes to clean. Spin-dry the leaves and place them in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the arugula to moisten. Toss well and place the salad on individual plates.
With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan into large shards and arrange them on the arugula.
