Ingredients
Mustard Vinaigrette:
- 1 garlic clove, sliced in 1/2
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- Small splash soy sauce
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
3 cups mixed greens, the darker the better (not iceberg)
Rub the inside of a large wooden bowl with the garlic clove and then either discard it or save it for another use. Put the mustard in the bowl and whisk in the balsamic vinegar and soy sauce (a French secret!) vigorously for about 10 seconds to get a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Drizzle in the olive oil as slowly as possible with 1 hand while whisking as quickly as possible with the other hand to emulsify. Lay the salad greens on top of the dressing and toss just before serving.

Love this recipe and have made it several times. I like it with just a pinch of sugar in it, but it's awesome as written. Leftovers (if there are any! make an amazing pork marinade!
