Caesar salad is one of the most famous and appreciated salads in the world. Try our delicious version with mushrooms and Veroni italian prosciutto, it will be even more tasty! 

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 baguette
  • 5.3 oz of Veroni prosciutto crudo (dry cured ham)
  • 5.3 oz of sliced fresh mushrooms

  • lettuce, as required
  • 3.5 oz of sour cream
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 pinch lemon zest
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove
  • salt and pepper

Steps:

  1. Prepare the salad dressing: mix together the sour cream, lemon juice and grated lemon zest in a bowl.
  2. Prepare the seasoning for the croutons: crush the garlic clove, add a pinch of salt and mince it. Add 1 tbsp oil and mix with a spoon, crushing and pressing until a smooth mixture is obtained.
  3. Clean the lettuce, remove any tough outer leaves and choose the more tender internal ones. Wash and dry the internal leaves and keep them in a cool place.
