"The spinach salad with olive oil and garlic combines tender leaves of fresh spinach with an olive oil flavored with golden garlic slices and crispy salami strips. This rustic composition uses the gentle heat of the seasoned olive oil to delicately wilt the green leaves, enhancing their velvety texture."

The balanced combination of natural ingredients transforms a lunch into a sensory experience.

Chef Tips

- Wash the spinach carefully and dry the leaves completely in a salad spinner so that the residual water does not dilute the warm olive oil. - Remove garlic from skillet as soon as it turns pale golden, as residual heat continues darkening thin slices. - Pour the hot aromatic sauté over the leaves on the platter immediately before serving to preserve the balanced texture.

Variations

- Sprinkle toasted chopped walnuts or golden pine nuts over the salad to introduce a crunchy contrast to the soft vegetable. - Add fine lemon zest or a tablespoon of reduced balsamic vinegar over the olive oil for an acidic touch. - Add shavings of aged parmesan cheese or pecorino cheese on top of the spinach at the moment of serving.

Substitutions

- O salame fatiado pode ser substituído por presunto cru tipo parma em tiras, cubinhos de bacon frito ou lombo defumado. - As folhas de espinafre podem ser combinadas com folhas tenras de rúcula silvestre, agrião picado ou couve cortada bem fininha. - O azeite de oliva extravirgem pode ser substituído por manteiga clarificada derretida com ervas frescas.

How to Store

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. As the spinach leaves will already be softened by the warm olive oil, the remaining salad can be consumed cold or heated quickly in a skillet to accompany pasta.

Can You Freeze It?

It is not recommended to freeze this salad, as spinach with olive oil and salami completely loses its consistency when thawed, becoming watery. It is a preparation that is made in minutes, and it is recommended to consume it always fresh.

What to Serve With

Combines very well as a garnish for grilled chicken fillets, pork chops on the griddle, poached eggs, or baked white fish. Accompanies slices of Italian bread toasted with olive oil and glasses of light and mineral dry white wine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should the spinach leaves be cooked in the pan or just drizzled?

Simply drizzle the raw leaves with the hot oil and garlic; the heat of the sauté is enough to wilt them gently.

How to prevent garlic from becoming bitter when browning in olive oil?

Keep the heat low to medium and stir constantly; remove the skillet from the heat at the first sign of light browning of the edges.

Posso usar espinafre congelado para fazer essa salada?

Não é indicado, pois o espinafre congelado já vem cozido e amassado, perdendo a estrutura de folhas necessária para a salada.

What is the most suitable type of salami for sautéing?

Cured Italian-style or hamburger-style salamis, thinly sliced into strips, provide excellent crunch and aroma.
