Preparation Wash the salad and remove the spoilt leaves. Break it into pieces and put it into a salad bowl. Wash the radishes and cut them into very fine rings. Cut the tongue into strips half a centimeter wide and 2 centimeters long.

Once these ingredients are ready, arrange them in the salad bowl. Mix the oil, lemon juice and salt, very well in a small bowl and then pour it over the salad.
 
The Chef's tips Bardolino is an 11.5° dry ruby red wine to be served at 18 to 20°
 
Curiosity Many recipes in the north of Italy use a green sauce where game or tongue is left for some time to make them more savoury and tender. This is known as in salmi or salmistrata
