Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful ingredients for the best results. Look for ripe tomatoes, crisp greens, and high-quality prosciutto di Parma.
  • Slice the prosciutto thinly: This will help it distribute its flavor throughout the salad. You can use a sharp knife or a meat slicer to achieve thin slices.
  • Make the dressing in advance: This will allow the flavors to meld together. You can make the dressing up to a day ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
  • Toss the salad gently: This will help prevent the greens from wilting.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Prosciutto di Parma salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, assemble the salad and dressing separately and toss them together just before serving.

Whether you are looking for a light lunch or a hearty dinner, prosciutto di Parma salad is a great option. Experiment with different greens, cheeses, and dressings to find your perfect combination.
