Cherry-Arugula Salad with Almonds and Tarragon
Serves 6
Cherries and almonds are a classic pair and make a delicious salad combination with tart arugula and fragrant tarragon.
Ingredients
2 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 small shallot, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon water
6 tablespoons slivered almonds, divided
1/2 pound cherries (about 2 cups), pitted and halved, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
5 ounces baby arugula
1 1/2 cups cooked whole grains (e.g. barley, farro, wheat berries, wild rice)
Method
In a blender, combine vinegar, shallot, mustard, water, 3 tablespoons of the almonds and 1/4 cup of the pitted cherries. Blend until very smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in tarragon.
Combine arugula, cooked grains and remaining cherries in a large bowl. Toss with the dressing and garnish with the remaining 3 tablespoons almonds.
