15 minutes
A light salad with mustard dressing is a harmony of freshness and spiciness, embodying European culinary sophistication. Its roots trace back to Mediterranean cuisine traditions, where simplicity and rich flavors of natural ingredients are valued. The mix of arugula, endive, and radicchio adds vibrant colors and bitterness to the salad, while the addition of chives brings a mild sharpness. The dressing made from red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard enriches the dish with an exquisite aroma, creating a balance between tartness and light sweetness. This salad is perfect for a summer dinner, a light snack, or as a side dish to the main course. It not only satisfies hunger but also energizes with fresh, crispy leaves and the rich flavor of the dressing.
