Bitter leaf salad with charred dates and vinaigrette

If you enjoy the sweetness of dates you HAVE to try smashing them in a pan and frying them until they’re charred and beautifully crispy.
They pair perfectly with some bitter leaves (which are in season right now!) and the tang and nuttiness of pecorino romano!
Give it a try!
