Here we are with the warmest week of the year! For somebody this is the most awaited week, because finally holidays arrive. Perhaps we would like to cook and it would be better to find easy and simple things to prepare. We would like to suggest a recipe “Cruditès with cold sauce” taken from the book of Antonia Polese.
Ingredients: 10-15 cherry tomatoes, 2 carrots, 2 heads Belgian endive, 1 red pepper, 1 yellow pepper, 2 fennels, 4 or 5 stalks of celery, other seasonal vegetables
Mustard vinaigrette: 100 ml extra virgin olive oil, 15 g mustard powder or cream, 3 o 4 tablespoons white wine vinegar, salt and pepper
Yogurt sauce: 125 g whole milk yogurt, 100 g soft cheese, ½ spring onion, chopped and covered in milk, 3 tablespoons extravergin olive oil, 3-4 basil leaves, salt and pepper
