Salad with persimmon cheese and arugula

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a salad with persimmon, cheese and arugula? Very simple and fast. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Disassemble the half of the pomegranate into grains in advance. This is a basic recipe that you can supplement or change to your liking. You can add any nuts to taste, berries, for example, blueberries or raspberries. The finished salad can be sprinkled with sesame seeds before serving.

2. Step 2:

   

   Remove the mozzarella from the brine and dry it. If the mozzarella is one large ball, cut it into thin slices. Instead of mozzarella, you can use any other cheese to taste: hard cheese like Russian or Gouda, soft cheeses like cottage cheese, processed or feta. Arugula and mozzarella are a classic win-win combination, so when choosing cheese, I stopped at this cheese.

3. Step 3:

   

   Wash the persimmon, dry it and cut it into slices, removing the bones. If desired, you can peel the fruit, especially if the skin is hard. Choose the persimmon variety according to your taste, but it is desirable that the fruits are not viscous - this will spoil the salad. In addition, persimmons should be delicious, juicy if possible, but not very soft. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

4. Step 4:

   

   Wash and dry the arugula. Instead of arugula, you can take other greens to taste. A ready-made mixture of salad leaves will do well.

6. Step 5:

   

   Now prepare all the ingredients for the dressing. I took olive oil of direct extraction (extra virgin), but you can take any vegetable to taste. Dry herbs can be used both Provencal and Italian.

7. Step 6:

   

   In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, liquid honey, herbs of Provence, salt and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth.

8. Step 7:

   

   Put arugula and slices of persimmon on a plate. Arrange the mozzarella balls. Sprinkle the salad with pomegranate seeds. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve immediately. Enjoy your meal!
