On a warm day, enjoy a cool, crunchy vibrant carrot salad with simple Sicilian flavor such as capers and oregano.
G. GIUSTOLISI
Capers and oregano are a few of the basic ingredients of Sicilian cuisine. Simple ingredients, but so rich in flavor that they give personality to the simplest dishes.
Crunchy, colorful and tasty, this salad is ideal during hot weather. The rice cheese, especially in summer, is a light and delicious ingredient. It can be replace with any cheese that is not too creamy, such as goat cheese or feta.
