Ingredients
- 5 ounces (or 5 generous handfuls) arugula
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, (from one lemon)
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, (best quality such as Lucini)
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Big hunk Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Steps
-
In a large salad bowl, combine the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place the arugula in the bowl and toss with the dressing.
-
Run a vegetable peeler along one of the flat sides of the Parmigiano Reggiano to create about ½ cup (50 g) cheese shavings (you can also use the slicing blade of a box grater or a cheese planer). Toss the cheese shavings with the salad and serve immediately.
