The mustard and caper dressing transforms this simple salad! If I can't find radicchio, I use a bit of organic arugula. Wow, extraordinary! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1 1/4 teaspoons salt |
1 pinch black pepper |
1 lb pork loin |
3/4 lb bow tie pasta |
1 head radicchio, about 3/4 lb |
1/4 cup red wine vinegar |
4 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1 shallot, chopped |
1 tablespoon capers, drained |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
2/3 cup olive oil |
