Lemon juice combines with mild rice vinegar in a dressing that's both sprightly and slightly sweet to dress young, tender lettuces.

Ingredients

1 shallot, finely chopped
1 ½ teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
16 cups arugula

Directions

Combine shallot, honey, mustard, and salt in a jar with a lid; add olive oil, lemon juice, and vinegar. Cover jar with lid and shake until dressing is thickened.
Place arugula in a bowl and drizzle dressing over greens; toss to coat.

Cook's Note:

You can make a larger batch of dressing by simply doubling or tripling the amounts and store it in the fridge for a week or two. This dressing can also do double duty as a marinade for chicken or thick, firm-fleshed fish.

Any variety of spring lettuce such as Bibb or red leaf can replace the arugula.
