Spanish Lemon Salad (Ensalada De Limón)

This pretty unusual dish comes from the Hurdes region in Extremadura, Spain. It was originally served to fieldworkers at midday to gather strength through the vitamins and proteins. If you don´t like the taste of pure lemon in your mouth, squeeze the lemons and just use the juice. Enjoy! Show more

  3. Drizzle olive oil and add salt to taste.
  4. Before you eat, you can cut up everything in the bowl, so that the yolk mixes with the citric juice to make up the dressing.
