- Add the arugula to a medium mixing bowl or serving bowl. Use a vegetable peeler to shave long, thin ribbons of Parmesan directly over the greens. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze over the lemon juice, and a splash of vinegar. (Start with less; you can always add more later.) Sprinkle with a pinch of flaky sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.
- Use clean hands or tongs to toss the salad lightly until the leaves are just coated, not drenched. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding a touch more lemon or olive oil if needed.
- This salad is best enjoyed right away while the arugula is crisp and the Parmesan still has texture.
