My rule of thumb for the perfect salad is a green, a fruit, an herb, a nut and a protein. Using that grid, you can create amazing salads. Also, by remembering a 4-to-1 ratio, you can always create a great dressing. With four parts oil, one part acid and some mustard to help emulsify, you can create dozens of vinaigrettes.

Directions
For the steak: Heat a grill to high for at least 5 minutes or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat; oil the grates.
Pat the steak dry with a paper towel and place on a plate. Season generously with salt and a pinch of pepper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Grill the steak until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the steak registers about 125 degrees F for medium rare, 3 to 4 minutes, or to desired doneness. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
For the honey mustard balsamic vinaigrette: Place the vinegar, honey, mustard, garlic and walnut oil in a medium bowl. Season with a heavy pinch of salt and pepper. Combine the vinaigrette in the bowl using an immersion blender until the ingredients emulsify, about 30 seconds.
For the salad: Combine the kale, arugula, parsley, figs, walnuts, blue cheese and persimmons in a large bowl. Rain in a nice pinch of salt and pepper. Dress the salad with about half of the vinaigrette, tossing well to coat. Taste and add more vinaigrette to taste (see Cook's Note).
Cook’s Note
Any remaining vinaigrette can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
