Steps:
- Make the Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette: Put the shallots, vinegar, bay leaf, and thyme into a small pot set over medium heat. Cook the vinegar until it is reduced to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and thyme stem.
- Pour the reduction into a mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl on a kitchen towel shaped into a circle to prevent the bowl from wobbling. Whisk in the honey, mustard, and salt. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking constantly to emulsify the vinaigrette. If the vinaigrette appears to thicken too much, add a teaspoon of cold water.
- Put the arugula in a bowl and dress with the Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the ricotta salata into the arugula. Toss to combine.

APRICOT AND ARUGULA SALAD WITH FRESH RICOTTA
This salad is a delightful interplay of sweet, creamy, tangy, and peppery flavors. If you prefer, you can swap in ricotta salata or a mild feta for the ricotta; both are saltier than fresh ricotta, so skip the seasoning with zest, salt, and pepper. Apricots have but a brief appearance even at the peak of their season. If you miss them, you can substitute with any other stone fruit. White nectarines, peaches, pluots, or plums would be particularly nice. In the fall, sliced fuyu persimmons are perfect. Whatever fruit you use, just make sure it's ripe and flavorful.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, zest, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Set aside.
- Combine the vinegar, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Whisk to blend, and continue to whisk as you drizzle in the olive oil.
- Put the arugula and apricots in a large bowl, drizzle about two-thirds of the dressing over, and toss gently but thoroughly with your hands. Toss and taste the salad. Add more dressing or vinegar, salt, and pepper as needed. Spread on a serving platter, or divide among 4 salad plates.
- Scatter teaspoonfuls of the ricotta mixture over the salad.
- Make extra of the ricotta mixture and spread it on bruschetta or toast.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher and better the quality of your ingredients, the tastier your salad will be.
- Choose a variety of textures and flavors: Arugula's peppery flavor pairs well with the creamy ricotta salata, crunchy pumpkin seeds, and tender artichoke hearts.
- Don't overdress the salad: A light vinaigrette dressing will help to enhance the flavors of the salad without overpowering them.
- Serve the salad immediately: Arugula salad is best enjoyed fresh, so serve it as soon as possible after making it.
