INGREDIENTS

- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 bunches watercress (12 ounces each), trimmed
- 1/2 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced

- In a large bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, and mustard; season with salt and pepper. Add watercress and cucumber; toss to combine. Serve immediately.
COOK'S NOTES
Although watercress stems are edible, the bottom two inches are usually too tough for salad. Trim them off with a sharp knife, and discard.
