Arugula salad with goat cheese and vanilla butter

Arugula is a new national Russian product. At least Moscow. The menu of any metropolitan restaurant cannot do without these spicy-tasting leaves. Most often, arugula is served in the company of shrimps - this is, of course, very tasty, but not the only solution! With goat cheese, oranges and vanilla dressing, arugula turns into a perfect lunch - both winter and summer.

Arugula salad with goat cheese and vanilla butter
Ingredients
  • 25 g raw sesame seeds
  • 1 cup peeled walnut halves
  • 1 goat cheese log
  • 1 very large orange
  • 2 packages Salad mix Belaya Dacha "Montpellier" (100 g each)
  • salt, freshly ground black pepper
  • 190 ml grape seed oil
  • 1 vanilla pod

STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE

Step 1
Prepare butter in advance. Pour it into a saucepan. Cut the vanilla pod in half lengthwise, use the end of a sharp knife to scrape the seeds into a saucepan. Put the pod there. Heat the oil over low heat until you smell vanilla (do not boil!) And remove the saucepan from heat. Cool, leave for 1-2 hours.
Step 2
Lightly fry the sesame seeds in a heated dry frying pan, shaking them, over low heat for 1 minute. Chop the nuts into small crumbs with a knife, but not into flour. Mix with sesame seeds.
Step 3
Cut the cheese "log" across into 8 pieces using dental floss or a thin sharp knife soaked in hot water. Very gently roll each piece in the nut mixture on all sides.
Step 4
Cut the peel off the orange with a sharp knife so that the flesh is visible. Then cut the fillets into wedges.
Step 5
Mix the salad mix leaves with vanilla oil to taste, arrange in 4 or 8 plates.
Step 6
Top with 1 or 2 slices of cheese in nuts and spread out the orange fillets. Season with salt and pepper, serve immediately with fresh bread.
