MISTICANZA SALAD with Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, walnuts, Parma ham and balsamic

February 23, 2024

In Italy many people think that "misticanza" is a particular type of salad, but in fact this term of dialectal origin is used to define a fresh and healthy mix of herbs or raw vegetables. Filling a bowl with misticanza is like preparing a white canvas on which to paint with a thousand colors. As a matter of fact, the secret ingredient for a light and delicate, but also delicious and tasty, mixed salad is only one: imagination.

The colors we have chosen for this tasty misticanza are the gold of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, the pink of Parma ham and the deep, dark brown of our Goccia Nera Balsamic Dressing: a finishing touch that will captivate the eyes and the palate, a precious ink with which to sign this recipe and many other ideas that will light up your kitchen with creativity.

  

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Servings:
 2 people

Ingredients

250 g fresh misticanza salad
60 g Parma ham (Prosciutto di Parma DOP)
40 g Parmigiano Reggiano DOP 18 months Emilia Food Love
30-40 g walnut kernels
2 tablespoons Goccia Nera - Balsamic Dressing Aged Emilia Food Love
Extra virgin olive oil Colline di Romagna DOP Emilia Food Love
Salt and pepper

Method

  1. Prepare two bowls and in each one arrange half of the fresh misticanza salad, previously washed and drained.
  2. Season the salad with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil Colline di Romagna, add a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of pepper.
  3. Cut thin slices of Parmigiano Reggiano using the cheese slicer, add them to the salad along with the walnut kernels and then mix everything well.
  4. Enrich with some Parma ham roses and, as a finishing touch, garnish with Goccia Nera Aged Balsamic Dressing.

Tip

If you prefer a less thick dressing and a more pungent taste, replace Goccia Nera with Emilia Food Love PGI Balsamic Vinegar of Modena Aged.

Rustic and with humble origins, it tells a story of necessity and sharing. It is said that bruschetta was born from the need to make bread last when it was scarce, but today, it's one of the most beloved and versatile appetizers.

A dish for all ages, all tastes, and all seasons, but we imagine it with the colors, flavors and atmosphere of autumn.

It is said that its name comes from the Latin verb “pinsère” which meant “to stretch”, and indeed the traditional and characteristic shape of pinsa is just that: stretched. Similar to pizza, but very different in both shape and flavor, pinsa is made through a long leavening process, a mix of flours, and a dough rich in water that gives it extraordinary digestibility.


Our pinsa with mortadella, pecorino, and Goccia Nera balsamic dressing is a colorful and flavorful delight, genuine and nutritious, that will win over both adults and children.
