WILD ARUGULA AND BEET SALAD WITH ORANGE, WALNUTS AND TARRAGON



Wild Arugula and Beet Salad With Orange, Walnuts and Tarragon image

This is a salad filled with contrasting sweet and peppery flavors. Pungent wild arugula contrasts beautifully with sweet beets, anisy tarragon and juicy oranges. If you can find purslane, it makes a great addition to the salad, with its earthy flavor and almost juicy, delicate crunch. You can use a mix of colors for the beets. I roasted golden and red beets together, and the red beets bled into the outside layer of the golden beets, making their color striking in the salad.
