Arugula and Strawberry Salad
Broiling the strawberries is a nice way to change the texture and concentrate the flavor. If you can't be bothered, feel free to use them fresh as is.
Ingredients
1 bag arugula
1 qt strawberries
2 oz parmesan
2 T sherry vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup pistachios
Method
- Wash and dry the arugula
- Wash and hull the strawberries
- Heat the oven to broil
- Toss the strawberries with a glug of neutral oil and a pinch of salt
- Spread the berries out on a tin-foil lined baking sheet allowing plenty of space between the berries.
- Broil the berries until they char and their liquid is released and then reduced to a thick syrup (about 7 minutes).
- Dress the arugula with the vinegar, oil, and a big pinch of salt and pepper.
- Transfer the arugula to a serving platter.
- Scatter the pistachios and roasted strawberries over the greens.
- Grate the cheese over the top of the salad and serve.
