This simple but tasty salad relies on fresh young arugula for a zesty nutty foundation flavor. Rinse and chop into large bite-sized pieces. Variations then abound, but for the above version, add apple slices, fresh currants (available in July at farmer's markets - substitute grape halves or another berry), toasted walnuts and freshly made cheese with peppercorns. The Ann Arbor Farmers Market is lucky to have the Zingerman's Creamery stall offering their freshly made herbed cheeses. The cheese with black peppercorns is called "Sharon Hollow".
Mix all ingredients and toss with a balsamic vinaigrette.
A delicious quick salad, but remember, it's best when the arugula is young and fresh!
