FYI / Fresh, Feisty Arugula: More Than A Salad Green

Perhaps the simplest yet most sublime way to enjoy arugula is to toss it with extra virgin olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, a few Parmesan cheese shavings and a dash or two of sea salt and crushed red pepper flakes.

It's a prototype as yet, but Hao believes the idea will catch on. "The aim is for the machine to use locally sourced ingredients and be part of the local community," he says. "Children could print out toys; adults could come up with their own designs. It would be like your local chocolate factory."   >>> read more
