Our Bison Bresaola although delicious by itself, is a wonderful addition to many dishes. In this recipe, I've paired it with Manchego cheese, pear and balsamic syrup, for a dynamo combination. You are going to love this product and the salad! Enjoy.
Ingredients: (per serving)
2 - ounces of Wild Idea Buffalo Bresaola
2 - ounces Manchego cheese, shaved
1 - quartered pear, sliced
2 - handfuls of baby arugula
¼ - cup roasted pecans
2 - teaspoons olive oil
squeeze of fresh lemon
Balsamic syrup
cracked black pepper
Preparation:
1) Place arugula in bowl and drizzle with olive oil and fresh lemon juice. Toss together to coat evenly.
2) Place greens on plate and arrange Bison Bresaola, Manchego, and pear on top of salad.
3) Sprinkle with roasted pecans, drizzle with desired amount of balsamic syrup, and finish with a twist of black pepper.
BRESAOLA is an air-dried, salted Italian beef ( usually) —you can see in the recipe you don’t cook it. More leathery than prosciutto. And Manchego is a cheese that is a Spanish sheep’s milk cheese (aged longer is better I think) particularity yummy when serve with quince paste ( membrillo).

THIS SALAD SOUNDS GREAT AND THE PICTURE LOOKS YUMMY. I HAVE ONE QUESTION, AND I PLEAD IGNORANCE HERE, BUT WHAT IS “BRESAOLA?” AND WHERE CAN I FIND “MANCHEGO?” IF I DON’T HAVE THESE TWO INGREDIENTS, WHAT CAN I USE TO SUBSTITUTE?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
