Recipe Reviews
friederike from Berlin,
A very nice salad. "Nearly Ottolenghi" is what DB thought (that's a compliment). He had this salad for lunch this week and though it's a little light for a complete meal, I wouldn't be afraid to serve it as a side for a dinner party. It slightly lacked a heart note, but the general combination of ingredients was very good, and he enjoyed eating a few of the lesser used vegetables such as fennel and kohlrabi. Also, the veggies needed to be cut much finer and it could have needed more bacon (he used smoked Schwarzwälder ham - to me it wasn't really cleary whether she actually meant a smoked or cured ham or the frying type of bacon. It says Speck in the title but then she requests Parma Ham - in German there's a clear distinction between the two, with bacon being what you fry with your eggs (breakfast) and potatoes (dinner), and Schinken being ham, usually smoked or dried).
