  • 4 ounces baby arugula (8 cups)

  • 1 cup celery leaves

  • 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley

  • 1 cup thinly sliced radishes (about 4)

  • 2 thinly sliced scallions

Directions

  1. Whisk together capers, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Gradually add olive oil, whisking constantly. Combine arugula, celery leaves, parsley, radishes, and scallions in a large bowl.
