Mature arugula has large and sharp leaves; it is better not to use them in cooking. For a salad, choose arugula with small soft leaves, the stems are best cut off, and the flowers (a nice cream color) can be used to decorate the dish – they are edible. Spicy olives, fried onions, fresh figs and salty cheeses go well with arugula. Arugula salad dressing can be made with olive oil, walnut or hazelnut oil, wine vinegar, and lemon juice. An impromptu arugula salad Calculation: 1½-2 cups of arugula per serving 1) Gently sort, wash and dry the arugula leaves. Tear large leaves into pieces. Place lettuce leaves in a bowl. 2) Fry the diced red onion, mix with balsamic vinegar and pepper. 3) Pour the arugula salad with the resulting dressing, put it on a dish in a slide and serve.
