Shaved celery heart, anchovy and bresaola salad with mustard dressing
Salads are a great way to showcase salumi because they allow the flavours of the cold meat to come through in all their complexity.

Ingredients

  • 1 celery heart, top trimmed and outer leaves removed
  • 4 anchovy fillets, thinly sliced lengthways
  • 100 gm thinly sliced bresaola (see note)
  • To serve: finely grated parmesan
Mustard dressing
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp brown sugar

Method

    Finely shave celery heart lengthways with a mandolin into a large bowl. Add anchovies and bresaola, season to taste, set aside.
  • 2
    For mustard dressing, whisk ingredients in a bowl and season to taste.
  • 3
    Divide salad among plates, drizzle with mustard dressing, scatter with parmesan and serve immediately.
