THE PERFECT GREEN SALAD

I am reluctant to call anything perfect - but after many, many variations on the basic salad, I think this one has come closest to being the ideal. It started with a mix of really fresh lettuces. Not home grown, but from a family farm here in the Tweed Valley. Mignonette, red lamb's tongue, butter lettuce, baby cos, local Sharwill avocado (the last of the season), roasted pine nuts and a classic vinaigrette of 2011 Joseph First Run extra virgin olive oil, 25 year old Spanish sherry vinegar, Pommery Dijon mustard, Murray River salt and pepper.
