ARUGULA SALAD WITH CHOPPED EGG AND PROSCIUTTO



Arugula Salad With Chopped Egg and Prosciutto image

This salad mimics a traditional salad favored in Switzerland called nüsslisalat mit ei, featuring clusters of mâche (a.k.a. lamb's lettuce or corn salad). Arugula is easier to find in North America, sold as baby arugula or as "wild" arugula, which has jagged leaves. Larger leaves of garden arugula or baby spinach, or a combination, would also work.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
Kosher salt and black pepper
8 ounces arugula (about 4 large handfuls), washed and dried
4 (8-minute) boiled eggs, cooled in ice water and peeled
8 thin slices prosciutto (3 ounces), optional

Steps:

  • Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Divide arugula among 4 large plates. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate 1 egg over the center of each salad. (Alternatively, press the egg through a wide-meshed sieve or hand-chop.)
  • Sprinkle each salad very lightly with salt. Whisk the dressing again and drizzle about 1 1/2 tablespoons over each salad. Drape 2 slices of prosciutto artfully over each salad, if using, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, ripe ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your salad. Look for firm, brightly colored tomatoes, tender arugula, and large, fresh eggs.
  • Use a variety of colors and textures: This will make your salad more visually appealing and interesting to eat. Try adding other vegetables like cucumbers, radishes, or bell peppers.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Start with a small amount and add more if needed.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Arugula wilts easily, so it's best to serve the salad as soon as it's made.

Conclusion:

Arugula, egg, and tomato salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It's packed with nutrients and antioxidants, and it's a great way to use up fresh summer produce. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of preparation, you can create a salad that is both healthy and delicious.
