Method

1. Pick through the arugula leaves, wash them, and drain them well
2. Place the arugula in a wide serving dish and top with slices of onion and tomato, sprigs of thyme, and pomegranate seeds
3. Mix or whisk the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, then pour evenly over the salad, add chopped or roughly chopped walnuts, and toss lightly
4. Serve the arugula salad immediately because arugula leaves wilt quickly
