Oh spring! Do you feel the energy rising in you as the sap goes up in the trees? You feel that desire of sun? I love going out of the winter and sitting on the terrace in the sun while my kids play in the garden. I love this brightness that we missed so much this winter. And I love the return of spring salads !
For the magazine Odelices , I made two gourmet recipes with the small spelled pasta of the company Lazzaretti. These pasta are made with small spelled grown on the high plateaux of Provence and dried in the old way with a low temperature process. More distinctive in taste than durum wheat, spelled has a slight aroma of hazelnut. I propose the first recipe: a spring pasta salad, with radishes, fresh peas and vegetable mozzarella (bought at Naturalia vegan).
