1/2 pound smoked salmon, cut in to small pieces
3 Tablespoons finely chopped red onion
1 1/2 Tablespoons capers, drained well
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
freshly ground black pepper to taste
Dill Vinaigrette:
2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 Tablespoon white wine vinegar
5 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons milk, whole or 2%
pinch of sugar
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh dill (fronds)
4 cups mixed greens
In a medium bowl combine the salmon, onion, capers, lemon juice, olive oil and pepper and mix gently but thoroughly to combine.
To make the vinaigrette: whisk the mustard and vinegar together. Add the olive oil and whisk again.
