Summer salad with cheese sablés
Intro
Fresh, crispy salads are ideal at any time of year – whether as a starter, a light snack in summer or as a side dish for a barbecue. The special feature of this recipe is the cheese sablés: savoury biscuits that, in combination with the raspberries on the salad, create a wonderful contrast of tastes. The dish requires little effort to prepare.
Sablés
These delicious crumbly biscuits are a highlight at any Swiss bakery. Alongside the familiar sweet version, savoury sablés are also very popular. They are quick and easy to prepare. The spicy cheese sablés with Cayenne pepper are an ideal snack to serve with an aperitif, but also make an original accompaniment to a salad instead of bread.
