SPANISH LEMON SALAD (ENSALADA DE LIMóN)



Spanish Lemon Salad (Ensalada De Limón) image

This pretty unusual dish comes from the Hurdes region in Extremadura, Spain. It was originally served to fieldworkers at midday to gather strength through the vitamins and proteins. If you don´t like the taste of pure lemon in your mouth, squeeze the lemons and just use the juice. Enjoy!
