Margherita's Recipe

Herbs salad or ?Misticanza?
Salad

Ingredients for 4 persons

500g. of mixed salad
(chervil, ?ruchetta?, valerian, onion herb, ?barba di frati?, ?porcaccia?, ?pimpinelli?, radishes?..etc)
Garlic, one clove
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Balsamic vinegar
Half lemon


Wash well the mixed herbs and let them drip. Dress the salad in a big salad bowl, previously rubbed with the garlic clove, add four pinches of salt, 4 balsamic vinegar drops, the juice of half lemon and abundant olive oil (4 or 5 spoons). Mix all using your hands and the salad is ready to be served.

Curiosity
This salad?s big difficulty is in finding all the ingredients, the tradition requires real field herbs and not common salad greens; do not trust enveloped herbs, they are simple mixed salads.  
The ?misticanza? as a real mix of herbs can be found only in Ponte Milvio market (open monday to friday from 7am to 2pm) from an ancient woman who sells it for nearly 10 euros a kilo (but it is really worth it!)
Roman tradition wants that salads are mixed by ?crazy people?  ? that is to say for a long time and with the hands!
