Vitamin salad with pecorino
6 servings
20 minutes
Vitamin salad with pecorino is a harmonious blend of fresh vegetables, sweet-sour apples, and tangy cheese. The origins of such a salad can be found in European culinary traditions where simplicity of ingredients meets refined taste. Crunchy white cabbage, juicy celery, and sweet carrots fill the dish with freshness while apple cider vinegar and olive oil add brightness. Pecorino, one of the oldest Italian cheeses, gives a special depth to the flavor while pine nuts finish the composition with a light nutty note. This salad is perfect for those who appreciate lightness and vitamin richness. It works wonderfully as a standalone dish or as a side to meat or fish, refreshing the main course's taste. Fragrant dill adds freshness making it a true celebration for the taste buds.
