Ingredients
Mustard Vinaigrette:
1 garlic clove,
sliced in 1/2
1 teaspoon
1 tablespoon balsamic
vinegar
Small splash soy
sauce
Salt and freshly
ground black pepper
3 tablespoons olive
oil
Directions
3 cups mixed greens,
the darker the better (not iceberg)
Rub the inside of a
large wooden bowl with the garlic clove and then either discard it or save it
for another use. Put the mustard in the bowl and whisk in the balsamic vinegar
and soy sauce (a French secret!) vigorously for about 10 seconds to get a creamy
consistency. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Drizzle in the olive oil as slowly as possible with 1 hand while whisking as
quickly as possible with the other hand to emulsify. Lay the salad greens on
top of the dressing and toss just before serving.
