Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Arugula

    Rinse the arugula leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Spin dry in a salad spinner or pat dry with paper towels. Place the arugula in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of the whole lemon. Add the olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined and emulsified. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the candied pistachios and grated or shaved Parmesan cheese over the arugula in the salad bowl.

  4. 4

    Toss the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine all the ingredients, ensuring the arugula is well coated with the dressing.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to individual plates or serve family-style in the bowl. Enjoy immediately for the freshest flavor and texture.
