The bright, fresh combination of endive and spinach makes this salad an elegant lunch or light dinner. Water-packed canned tuna works fine, but oil-packed tuna has a richer, more satisfying flavor.

- 2 Tbs. brine-packed capers, rinsed and drained
- 1 medium clove garlic
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tbs. Dijon mustard
- 3 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
