Salad With Prosciutto & Warm Balsamic Dressing

"From "The Splendid Table" by Lynne Rossetto Kasper, this is a favorite in my house. Its very easy to make but impressive to serve for company. Try using different greens. The dressing can be made in advance and kept at room temp for up to a few hours. This is great for a light main dish as well as a salad course. Serve with a good bread to sop up the dressing."

  1. I don't have to make this again to know I love it! I love "The Splendid Table" and all of her recipes. Quite often I make the dressing and use it on steamed, new potatoes tossed with fresh herbs and baby lettuce from my garden. Fabulous Post!
