Preparation

1. Trim off the bottom of the endives, cut them into inch-long pieces or cut them lengthwise into thin shreds. Drop the pieces into cold water to keep them from turning dark. Drain, spin or pat dry.
2. In a salad bowl, combine the mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, salt and pepper. Blend well with a wire whisk, then add the oil slowly to form an emulsion.
3. Place the salad greens, the scallions and chervil into the salad bowl and toss well with the dressing. Serve immediately.
