PLEASE NOTICE THAT TASTESPOTTING IS NOT COMPLETELY DEAD!!! JUST HURT AND IN THE ICU... MEANWHILE GO AND HAVE A TOAST AT LIQURIOUS.There's a saying here in Spain that goes: ¿Querías caldo? ¡Toma 2 tazas! The literal translation would be: Did you want a broth? Here you have 2 cups! It means that you were wishing for something and all of a sudden you are getting that "something" everyday or very often.
Here we wanted rain... and we DID HAVE RAIN!!!! See the difference between the pictures? This amount of water has been achieved during the month of May. So, pleaseeeee we have had enough water, could we have a little bit of sun now? I want to start eating salads!!!
Salads are one of my favourite dishes during hot summer days. Easy to prepare, no heat involved, fresh and healthy ingredients... in summary a great starter or a wonderful side dish, as you prefer!
You will have this salad fixed in no time and your guests will love it! The cured duck's ham will give it a nice twist. Ingredients for 4 servings: 1 orange, different types of lettuce (you can use the ones you like better), 100 grs of duck's cured ham, some walnuts, 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, salt and black ground pepper.
- Get all ingredients clean and peeled: peel the orange, wash the lettuce and dry it, get the walnuts out of their shells and open the ducks' package.
- Prepare the dressing: in a small bowl, pour the vinegar, the salt, the olive and pepper and whisk until all ingredients get mixed. Reserve.
- Serve the salad in a bowl: first place the lettuce leaves, the orange cut in pieces, and the ducks' ham (I "showed" my ham to a hot sauce pan for some seconds, but you can have it as it comes too). Add the dressing on top. Mix carefully and add the walnuts.
Today the day started with a beautiful sun entering my kitchen's window :D
