Salad Recipe
Oct. 30th, 2012 07:08 amI'm not sure that I'll blog every recipe I try from this book, but I'll do this one.
Recipe as printed in the book, strikethrough indicates, "I didn't use that!"
6 cups baby arugula
2.5 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1.5 tsp walnut oil
2 tsp sherry wine vinegar
1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 oz hearts of palm, sliced
16 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts, toasted (did this Monday morning by spreading on a single pan and baking at 325 for 5 minutes)
This was designed for 4 people, so everything that I included, I quartered.
Things I added:
one raw turnip, sliced up
two big button mushrooms, sliced up
a few drops of sesame oil (to add flavor due to omitted things above)
Eating the tomatoes was like OMG because I really can't remember the last time I'd had tomatoes. MMM.
After eating there was some mild chest pain, and after that some acid pain (or what I call "pukey pain"), even after taking my walk.
I'm not sure whether this will continue if I keep trying tomatoes - maybe I'll just get used to them? Or maybe I won't. Experimentation becomes really boring and awful when the result of a failed experiment = pain, fyi.
