Arugula Salad with Orange and Hearts of Palm, Kiku Corner

This arugula salad is my new favourite dish for summer. It has all the essentials of a great salad: colour (just look at how vibrant it is), crunch from the celery, sweetness from the orange, and something unexpected in the form of hearts of palm. You can use your favourite dressing, but I tried summery garlic dressing and it was the perfect complement for an arugula salad.

The first time I ever heard of hearts of palm was on a beach in Montevideo, Uruguay with Donatello. We were on a short break from our cruise ship job and after a beautiful bicycle ride, we were famished. Donatello found a cute little cafe and ordered us hearts of palm sandwiches. Those tender white tubes were so exotic to me at the time. I was hooked.

I have only found canned hearts of palm back in North America, but they work fine. Rinse them a few times before using them in this arugula salad.
