Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Strawberries

    Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. Slice them into quarters and set aside.

    Rinse the arugula thoroughly under cold water, then dry with a salad spinner or pat dry with a paper towel.

  3. 3

    Slice the Onion

    Thinly slice the red onion into rings. If the flavor is too strong, soak the slices in cold water for 10 minutes and then drain.

    Crumble the Goat Cheese

    If using a block of herbed goat cheese, crumble it into small pieces.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 5

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together raspberry vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 6

    Mix the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the arugula, sliced strawberries, red onion, and candied pecans.

  2. 7

    Add Dressing

    Drizzle the raspberry honey Dijon vinaigrette over the salad mixture and toss gently to combine.
