Shrimp salad with parmesan pancakes is an elegant dish of Italian cuisine that combines the tenderness of seafood with the crispy texture of cheese pancakes. This recipe embodies the spirit of the Mediterranean: the rich flavor of royal shrimp harmonizes with the spiciness of parmesan and the freshness of greens. The parmesan pancakes, made by melting cheese with semolina, acquire a crispy structure, creating a perfect base for the salad. A spicy dressing with garlic, chili pepper, and white wine vinegar highlights the rich flavor profile of the dish. This salad is suitable for both festive dinners and light snacks on a summer day, adding a touch of sophistication and Italian chic to the meal.
