Asparagus Bread Salad with Parma Ham
April 5th, 2022 | main dishes
The German classic “asparagus with ham” has been modified into an Italian-inspired crunchy asparagus bread salad. Of course, no smoked ham is used for this salad, but fine Parma ham. Fresh spring wild herbs, fruity-sweet pieces of melon and juicy mozzarella cheese round off this recipe.
At the beginning of the asparagus season, I would like to introduce you to one of our favorite asparagus recipes. This asparagus bread salad with Parma ham is a delicious main course: easy to make, colorful and simply ingenious in its complexity – and the highlight: crispy toasted bread slices provide the necessary crunch.
Ground elder, wild garlic, rocket, sorrel, garlic mustard, pimpinell and much more are suitable as wild herbs. If you don’t want to collect wild herbs and you can’t find any in the supermarket, you can of course also use leaf lettuce such as oak leaf lettuce. Instead of mozzarella, the salad also tastes great with coarsely grated Parmesan.
