An Italian mother-in-law taught her how to cook a rare but delicious dish - salame di verdura!

Recently, my childhood friend came home from Italy. The fact that recently she met a nice Italian, who soon called her under the crown and took her abroad.

To my great surprise, my friend did not focus on the role of a faithful wife and a housewife, she completed a course of makeup and now works in a small beauty salon.





When she came home, she invited all her friends to Italian. The crown dish of the hostess was a special casserole - salame di verdura (literally translated as "salami with vegetables"). It turns out that this dish is a real relic of her husband's family.

Women passed the recipe from mother-in-law to daughter-in-law and from mother to daughter from generation to generation. I asked my friend about the intricacies of cooking this dish, and this is what she told me.





Italian casserole Ingredients

• 600-700g flour
• 4 eggs
• 3 liters of water
• 1 kg of spinach (fresh or frozen)
• 300 g of hard cheese (parmesan, tilziter, gouda, Dutch)
• 1 tsp salt
• 250g butter
• 50g olive oil

Preparation

1. Prepare pre-spinach: Place the washed greens in a pan and put it on a slow fire. When the leaves let the juice, add olive oil.
   
   
   
2. Also, before cooking the casserole, grind the cheese.
   
   
   
3. In a small container, combine the flour and eggs, then knead the dough for the future roll. In consistency, it should resemble dough for dumplings or dumplings. Give him time to rest (about 40 minutes).
   
   
   
4. Prepare a clean linen fabric. Roll the dough in long stripes (no more than 3 millimeters thick). To do this, use a roller or a machine to roll the dough. You can roll the dough in the form of a large round cake, this will not spoil the appearance of the dish. Put strips of dough on the fabric.
   
   
   
5. On the fabric, connect the stripes with each other to get a whole layer of dough.
   
   
   
6. Put the spinach on the dough and evenly distribute it throughout the area of the cake.
   
   
   
7. Sprinkle the spinach heavily with cheese (use about 200 grams), then roll the roll out of the dough. If the size of the test is too large, roll it up as shown in the photo.
   
   
   
8. Wrap the roll from dough into fabric, then shape it into a ring.
   
   
   
9. Bring the water to a boil in advance, salt and put a roll into it. Prepare the roll in 20 minutes.
   
   
   
10. When the roll is ready, remove it from the pan and leave it for a few minutes to cool. After removing the fabric, cut the "sausage" into small pieces.
    
    
    
11. Put the pieces in a glass form for baking and sprinkle everything with the remains of cheese.
    
    
    
12. Cut the oil into small pieces and place them on top of the roll pieces.
