How to Make 1789 Apple Arugula Salad With Aged Gouda And Crisped Pancetta
- **Make the Cider Vinaigrette:**
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup apple cider, 2 tablespoons thinly sliced shallots, and 1 sprig fresh thyme. Reduce over medium heat until syrupy (about 2 ounces), approximately 10-15 minutes.
- Strain the reduction, reserving the cider syrup and discarding the shallots and thyme.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the reduced cider, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Slowly whisk in 1 cup extra virgin olive oil until emulsified. Taste and add more olive oil (up to 1/2 cup more) if needed. Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Set aside at room temperature.
- **Prepare the Salad:**
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Arrange 4 ounces pancetta slices on a baking sheet and bake until crispy, about 15-20 minutes.
- Set aside to cool.
- Using a mandoline slicer, thinly slice 1-2 crisp apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji recommended) horizontally into approximately 18 paper-thin slices.
- Peel and shred the remaining apples (about 1 medium apple) to yield 1 cup shredded apple.
- Shred 4 ounces aged Gouda cheese.
- Wash 5 ounces arugula thoroughly and spin dry.
- Thinly slice 1/4 cup red onion.
- In a large bowl, gently combine arugula, red onion, crisped pancetta, and 1/4 cup of the cider vinaigrette.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Arrange 3 apple slices on each plate. Top with a portion of the arugula mixture, sprinkle with shredded Gouda and shredded apple.
