Arugula, Radicchio, and Mint Salad

Serves 4-6 Wine Pairing: 2021 Herd & Hart Western Cape Sauvignon Blanc If there’s a radicchio salad with shaved parmesan on the menu, I almost always order it! I love having a salad like this on the table alongside Chicken Milanese or a light, white fish. It’s almost like a palate cleanser. This salad would be great for lunch too with a piece of salmon on top. The bitterness of the radicchio marries well with the peppery arugula and the honey in the dressing ties everything together. Ingredients

• 5 oz. Arugula
• 1 head of radicchio
• 1/4 cup mint leave
• ½ cup shaved parmesan
• ½ cup pistachios
• Cracked Black Pepper
• Optional: It’s fun to throw in whatever stone fruit is in season like apricots or peaches

For the Dressing:

• 1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard
• ¼ cup Lemon Juice
• 1 tbsp. Honey
• ¼ cup Olive Oil

Make the dressing by whisking everything together. Chop the radicchio and throw into a bowl with the arugula. Toss in whole mint leaves. Season with cracked black pepper and throw in both the parmesan and pistachios. Toss with the dressing until everything is coated. If you feel like you need to or want to drizzle with some extra olive oil, it never hurts!
