• 7 to 8 scallions, washed, dried and cut into slices (green and white parts)
• 1 small bunch chives, sliced
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground white pepper
• 2 tablespoons water
• 8 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

• 6 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 2 shallots, peeled, quartered lengthwise, sliced thin
