Preparation

Step 1
In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk, mustard, vinegar and large pinch of salt. Beginning a drop at a time, whisk in oils. As it emulsifies, add oil a little faster in a slow, steady stream. When mixture is thick, taste, and adjust seasoning. It should be highly seasoned.
Step 2
Transfer mixture to a blender or food processor, add arugula, and puree. (Add a tablespoon of water, if necessary, to get arugula flowing.) Taste, and adjust seasoning before serving.
