Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons sherry wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup almond or safflower oil
Salt
Freshly ground white pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup diced fresh artichoke bottoms
Salt
Freshly ground white pepper
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced green beans
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup diced radicchio
1/2 cup fresh corn kernels
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced ripe avocado
1/4 cup peeled, seeded, and chopped tomato
4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup mixed greens of your choice (curly endive, chicory, baby lettuce), cut or torn into bite-size pieces

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the mustard and vinegar. Slowly whisk in the oils. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and set aside. Whisk again when ready to serve.
  • In a small skillet, heat the olive oil. Season the diced artichokes lightly with salt and pepper and saute until al dente, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool.
  • Blanch the carrots and beans by placing each into a fine mesh basket. Set the basket into a pot of boiling salted water and cook until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Plunge onto cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain, cool, and add to the artichokes. Add the onion, radicchio, corn and celery.
  • When ready to serve, dice the avocado and the tomato and add to the other vegetables. Reserving a little vinaigrette, toss the vegetables with the vinaigrette, sprinkle with the grated cheese, and toss again. Correct seasoning to taste.
  • Toss the greens with the reserved vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Divide the salad greens among 4 salad plates. Mound the chopped salad on the greens and serve immediately.
