Vegetable salad with arugula and feta cheese is a vibrant dish of Italian cuisine, combining freshness, spiciness, and tenderness. Historically, arugula was a favorite ingredient in Mediterranean dishes due to its tangy flavor. In this salad, it harmoniously complements sweet peppers, crunchy celery, and canned corn, creating a rich texture. Feta adds creamy saltiness while balsamic vinegar and vegetable oil provide a subtle acidity and depth of flavor. The salad is perfect as a light standalone dish or a side for fish and meat. Its uniqueness lies in the balance of freshness and spicy notes, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.
