Salad) Recipe courtesy of Mario Batali Yield: 4 servings For the Gnocco: cup milk 1 package dry yeast 1 pound whole wheat flour 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil Pinch salt 2 cups lard For the Tomato Salad: 4 cups mixed heirloom tomatoes cup torn opal basil cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 2 cups day old bread 2 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Dried oregano, for garnish 1 garlic clove, minced
To make breadcrumbs: Toss torn bite-size pieces of bread with cup of extra virgin olive oil, salt,
pepper, oregano and minced garlic until evenly coated with oil. Toast breadcrumbs for 10 minutes in the oven on a baking sheet.
To make the vinaigrette: Dissolve two healthy pinches of salt in red wine vinegar and then whisk in
cup of extra virgin olive oil.
To make the frico: Sift Parmigiano Reggiano through a sieve to ensure there are no clumps. Heat
an 8-inch non-stick sauce pan over a medium flame for 2-3 minutes. Evenly spread the cheese over the whole surface of the hot pan. There should be just enough that you can no longer see the surface of the pan. Allow the cheese to slowly melt, without touching it, and when it turns a little golden brown, carefully remove it with a rubber spatula and let it cool. Toss the tomatoes and toasted breadcrumbs with the red wine vinaigrette until everything is evenly coated. Gently break the frico into four pieces and arrange the pieces on each side of the plate. Serve with a hot gnocco fritto.
