My bread salad recipe is on the program today and I have come up with something special for you.
Simply combine crispy fried bread cubes with blanched beans or asparagus with shrimp.
In the article you will find many tips and ideas for your new favorite Italian salad.
Add the remaining bread cubes and decorate attractively.
Serve quickly! I wish you a good appetite!
You can add and refine the Italian bread salad with fried fennel and zucchini, dried or fresh tomatoes, artichokes from a jar and freshly roasted almonds.
Here you will find two variants for delicious and suitable salad marinade.
Simple dressing
Most of the time I always prepare a whole glass with salad dressing.
This is practical because the dressing is then ready to hand in the fridge.
You can use a washed cucumber jar to mix the dressing, here is the overview:
Pour 100ml of white wine vinegar or white balsamic vinegar into the glass
Half a level teaspoon of salt
Two teaspoons of sugar
Some pepper.
Shake the jar (with the lid closed) until all the spices are dissolved
Then add 350ml olive oil and 50ml water.
Shake the jar (with the lid closed) again until you get a creamy dressing.
This is a simple dressing, you can add finely chopped garlic (1/4 clove) and/or hot Dijon mustard (1 teaspoon) and refine your salad marinade individually.
Prepare the dressing or marinade for your bread salad first!

Dressing with wow effect
For a special dressing, get an old balsamic or cook a young balsamic into a balsamic ice cream.
After arranging the ingredients, you skillfully pull the ice cream over the salad.
You should at least marinate the beans in advance with some vinegar, salt, pepper, sugar and olive oil.

This combination in the bread salad was new to me. 🙂 my family loves the version with arugula and tomatoes, some vinegar and whatnot… but with the shrimp and beans it was a great change!

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for Sharing this great idea 🙂
I tried your bread salad with beans and shrimp yesterday.
I had added some bread cubes from a chiabatta without a crispy effect.
It tasted great, absolutely delicious! Thanks very much! LG Indrit
