Making Arugula Salad — A Silent Ritual of Simplicity

Written by

·

Making arugula salad is more than a recipe. It is a ritual. A moment of quiet simplicity.
It begins with a handful of leaves and ends with a bowl of calm.

At Walk and Reflect, each recipe is an invitation to pause.
To listen to the rhythm of chopping, slicing, and pouring.
To prepare food without hurry, and to eat it with gratitude.

Watch this ritual unfold in silence:

Ingredients

  • Fresh arugula
  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Feta cheese
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Fresh cracked black pepper

Instructions

1. Begin with presence.
Wash and dry the arugula. Place it gently in a wide bowl.

2. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half.
Notice the seeds, the color, the small burst of juice with each cut.

3. Crumble feta cheese over the greens and tomatoes.
Let the texture soften the vivid greens with its quiet white.

4. Drizzle with olive oil.
Not too much. Just enough to gloss each leaf with light.

5. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Taste as you go. Let simplicity guide the measure.

6. Toss lightly, with intention.
No rushing. Just turning. Just presence.


Reflection

This is not just salad.
It is a meditation on freshness.
A reminder that nourishment can be found in the simplest ingredients, combined with care.

When you eat, taste each bite.
When you prepare, let your breath match your motion.

Breathe. Reflect. Taste.
