Serve immediately.
Note that leftovers will not keep well for this salad. You can buy pre-mixed and prewashed mesclun salad greens (often called “spring mix” or “wild green mix”) or mix your own varieties. Select a mix of both mild (e.g. romaine, red leaf lettuce, spinach, mizuna, tatsoi, frisse, endive) and spicier varieties (e.g. radicchio, baby beet greens, baby mustard greens, arugula, chicory).
