Escarole And Raisin Salad
serves 2-4
Recipe from cookthink
This is a simple side salad: just chop, toss, and serve. The raisins provide a nice sweet contrast to the escarole and vinaigrette. We like golden raisins, but certainly you could use black ones or even dried currants.

instructions
1. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, shallot, salt and pepper. Let these ingredients sit for 10 minutes. Then, drizzle in the olive oil in a steady stream, constantly whisking until the dressing is emulsified.
2. Combine the raisins and escarole in a large bowl. Toss the salad with a little of the dressing at a time, tasting it as you go, until the escarole is coasted with the vinaigrette but not drenched.
