Salads are a perfect option for this time, as they are fresh, light, and easy to prepare. In addition, salads are extremely nutritious, as they are full of vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are important for health. Salads can be as simple or as complex as you want, and can be personalized for all tastes or dietary preferences. From classic vegetable salads to the most creative and unexpected combinations, salads are an excellent way to enjoy the fresh and light flavors of spring.

And if you want to add a bit of elegance and sophistication to your salads, there’s nothing better than pairing them with a glass of cava. Cava is a fresh and aromatic beverage that intensifies the flavor of salads and adds a special touch to any menu:

Smoked Salmon and Apple Salad: Prepare this delicious salad by cutting smoked salmon into pieces and mixing it with slices of apple, cucumber leaves, and fresh rocket. For the dressing, combine olive oil with apple vinegar and a bit of Dijon mustard to give it a spicy touch. The Castell d’Or Brut Cava, with its medium intensity and subtle aromas of tree fruit like apple, will enhance the fresh flavours of the salad, creating a balanced and refreshing gastronomic experience.

Tomato and Mozzarella Salad: Enjoy this classic salad by cutting ripe tomatoes and fresh mozzarella into slices, and mixing them with Swiss chard leaves and black olives. The dressing, made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and chopped garlic, brings a Mediterranean touch to the dish. Pair this salad with Castell d’Or Rosé Cava, which has a light and fruity flavour that perfectly complements the smoothness of the mozzarella and the sweetness of the tomatoes, creating a symphony of flavours in the mouth.

 

Watermelon and Feta Salad: With a refreshing combination of watermelon chunks, crumbled feta cheese, mint leaves, and various lettuces, this salad is a burst of summer flavours. The dressing, made with olive oil, white wine vinegar, and honey, provides a subtle sweetness that enhances the flavours of the ingredients. Pair this dish with Flama d’Or Semi-dry Cava, which with its light and fruity sweetness, complements the freshness of the watermelon and the saltiness of the feta, creating an irresistible harmony of flavours.

 

 

Pasta and Prawn Salad: The combination of cooked pasta, sautéed prawns, raw lettuce, and halved cherry tomatoes offers a salad full of textures and flavours. The dressing, with olive oil, cider vinegar, and chopped parsley, further enhances the tastes of the dish. Accompany this salad with Cossetània Brut Nature Cava, which with its dry and mineral flavour, complements the seafood flavours of the prawns and the pasta, creating an elegant and sophisticated gastronomic experience.

Rocket, Feta Cheese, and Pomegranate Salad with Honey and Mustard Dressing: This surprising salad with spicy rocket, salty feta cheese, and juicy pomegranate seeds, is a festival of flavours in every bite. The honey and mustard dressing provides a balanced sweetness and a spicy touch to the dish. Pair this salad with Castell d’Or Brut Organic Cava, which with its dry and refreshing profile, enhances the intense flavours of the rocket and feta, while its citrusy and mineral notes perfectly complement the sweetness of the pomegranate, creating an exquisite and well-balanced combination of flavours.
