Mâche is sold in different ways sometimes it comes in a package with soil plugs attached and sometimes you can find it loose, like mesclun. If you're buying it with plugs attached, you'll need 1 1/2 pounds; if you're buying it loose, you'll need 5 ounces. Ingredients:
1 yolk from a large hard-boiled egg |
2 3/4 teaspoons white-wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup olive oil |
16 cups loosely packed mâche (lamb's lettuce; see above) |
Directions:
1. Crumble yolk into a blender, then add vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper and blend until combined well. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream, blending until combined well. 2. Toss mâche with vinaigrette just before serving. 3. Cooks' note: Vinaigrette can be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature, then whisk until combined well. |
