EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If prosciutto isn't available in your area, very thinly sliced deli ham can be substituted. Make sure to pat the ham dry with paper towels before cooking it. The ham may not become as crisp and chewy and may remain in larger pieces. Another substitution is 6 slices of crisply cooked bacon, crumbled.

This robust, full-flavored salad would be delicious alongside grilled steak or lamb chops.

Prosciutto is a dry-cured Italian ham that is usually sliced paper thin. It can be found in the deli area of most large supermarkets, at meat markets and at Italian markets.
