Salad with Unagrande mozzarella, broccoli and green peas
4 servings
20 minutes
This salad is the embodiment of European culinary sophistication, a harmonious blend of fresh vegetables and the tenderness of Unagrande mozzarella. Broccoli, gently blanched to perfect texture, retains its brightness and crunchiness, while snap peas add lightness and a sweet note to the dish. The spiciness of chili pepper adds a piquant touch, creating a play of contrasts, and pine nuts enrich the flavor with their buttery depth. Dressed with olive oil and rice vinegar, the salad achieves a perfect balance of acidity and richness. It is not just a light dish — it is an exquisite gastronomic find suitable for both festive tables and healthy everyday meals. It is ideal for connoisseurs of fresh, natural ingredients and refined flavor combinations.
