This simple Classic French Bistro Salad, served at cafés, brasseries and bistros all over France, is beyond easy and yet one of those recipes you'll be turning to again and again (especially when you want to feel a little "fancy" with minimal effort on your part.
Combine the oils in a large salad bowl.
Add the Dijon mustard and salt and whisk to combine.
Add the vinegar, finely minced shallot and black pepper. Whisk until slightly thickened.
Add the greens to the bowl and toss until thoroughly coated with the dressing. Take your time and keep tossing until you feel like everything has a thin coat of dressing. Serve, enjoy and pretend you’re in France!

If you prefer to use Metric measurements there is a button in each of our recipes, right above the word “Instructions”. Just click that button to toggle to grams, milliliters, etc. If you ever come across one of our recipes that doesn’t have the Metric conversion (some of the older recipes may not), feel free to leave a comment and I will add it.
