Mixed salad with green apple and pickled shallots
2 servings
30 minutes
Mixed salad with green apple and pickled shallots is an elegant combination of freshness, sweet-sour notes, and delicate texture. This recipe is inspired by Italian cuisine, where the harmony of flavors plays a key role. Crispy leaves of romaine, iceberg, and lollo rosso complemented by peppery arugula create the perfect base. The green apple adds a refreshing tartness while the pickled shallot combined with honey-lemon dressing gives the dish a refined depth of flavor. Light yet sophisticated, this salad makes an excellent accompaniment to main dishes or a standalone gastronomic delight. It is perfect for a summer dinner or light lunch, filling every moment with flavor.
