Arugula, Truffle and Pecorino Salad
Truffles are known in Italy as tartufi. In the province of Pesaro
they are harvested throughout the year and enjoyed in soups,
omelets, cassoulets, and on salads. This is an absolutely delicious salad. Those of you who have been to Italy will surely be reminded
of ancient hillsides, cobalt skies, and burning sunshine.
