In a large bowl, whisk together the mustard and vinegar. While whisking, drizzle in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Using a knife or a mandolin, thinly slice the apple into half moons. Toss to coat in the dressing. Add the arugula, remaining salt and almonds and toss to coat. Top with a few dollops of the ricotta and serve immediately.
