I tried reblogging from a wonderful food and photography blog I follow, and somehow in my inexperiece in such matters I screwed up, tried to reblog it again and couldn’t. The blog is Acorn in my Kitchen, post on Cecina, Rocket and strawberry salad.
I asked the author about the featured ingredient, cecina, having never heard of it. He recommended bresaola, the Italian version which is available here and a first try for me. Since strawberries are not in season here I used figs. Excellent!
So giving the original author full credit, here’s my adaptation with what’s avaliable here:
Bresaola slices (Italian aged dried beef)
fresh figs
rocket leaves
romaine lettuce (small handful)
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
ground pepper
grated parmesan
Place the greens as a base, with quartered or sliced figs surrounding, place bresaolo on top, sprinkle with grated parmesan. Drizzle olive oil and blasamic, top with ground pepper.
Lucky you with the figs!
Figs abundant here, loved your recipe
