Today marks the end of vacation and a return to work, feeling refreshed and full of new ideas. I’ve had a good rest. Today, I’m bringing a fresh and light salad packed with seasonal fruit for lunch. The surprise is finding these barattiere cucumbers from Puglia in my region—they’re lighter and easier to digest. I really enjoy the sweet and savory contrasts in this salad. Here’s my salad for a lunch break.
