INSTRUCTIONS
Bring a large quantity of water to a boil and cook the orzo just until
tender. Drain and allow to cool. Mix the pasta with the onion, tomato,
celery, basil, olives and capers. In a small bowl, whisk together the
mustard, sugar and vinegar. Gradually beat in the oil until an emulsion
forms. Pour this vinaigrette over the pasta mixture and season with salt
and pepper. Chill the salad. When it is cold, mix in the crumbled chevre,
then serve.
