Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash the heirloom lettuce mix thoroughly under cold running water. Shake off excess water or use a salad spinner to dry the leaves. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Pickled Shallots

    Take the pickled shallots and drain any excess liquid if desired. Scatter the pickled shallots over the lettuce in the salad bowl.

  3. 3

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the sherry vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and emulsified.

  4. 4

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and gently toss the lettuce and shallots to coat them evenly with the dressing.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately as a fresh side dish.
