Tips:
- Choose the right ingredients: Use fresh, ripe arugula and grapes for the best flavor. Look for seedless grapes to make eating the salad easier.
- Blister the grapes: Blistering the grapes concentrates their sweetness and adds a nice smoky flavor. To blister the grapes, heat a little oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the grapes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and brown. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Make the vinaigrette ahead of time: The vinaigrette can be made up to 3 days in advance. Store it in a jar or container in the refrigerator.
- Assemble the salad just before serving: The arugula will wilt if it sits in the dressing for too long, so assemble the salad just before you're ready to eat it.
Conclusion:
This arugula salad with blistered grapes and sparkling wine vinaigrette is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. The combination of sweet grapes, tangy vinaigrette, and peppery arugula is sure to please everyone at your table.
