Chef's Notes
Pay absolute attention to the temperature of your ingredients and the lightness of your toss; a heavy hand will bruise the delicate greens and turn your masterpiece into a tragedy.
Pro Tip
Always ensure your rocket is thoroughly dried after washing, otherwise the residual water will repel the glorious balsamic dressing instead of letting it cling to the leaves.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Drowning the delicate rocket in balsamic vinegar hours before serving will transform your vibrant, peppery masterpiece into a depressing, soggy swamp of green regret, earning you an immediate ban from my royal kitchen.

Royal Court Comedy

The Culinary Science
Whisking or shaking oil and vinegar together creates a temporary emulsion by suspending tiny droplets of oil within the vinegar, held together temporarily by the surface tension modified by vigorous kinetic energy.
