  • Prepare Vegetables Properly: Thoroughly wash and dry the vegetables before slicing or chopping. Use a sharp knife to ensure clean, even cuts.
  • Make the Mustard Vinaigrette in Advance: The vinaigrette can be made several hours or even a day before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Use Good Quality Mustard: The type of mustard you use will greatly impact the flavor of the dressing. Choose a high-quality mustard with a flavor that complements the vegetables, such as Dijon or grainy mustard.
  • Toss the Salad Gently: When combining the vegetables and dressing, toss them gently to avoid bruising the delicate leaves.
  • Serve Immediately: This salad is best enjoyed immediately after dressing, while the vegetables are still crisp and the flavors are bright.
