Cheesy Grana Padano Potato Salad Recipe - Insalata di Grana Padano

This cheesy potato salad made with Grana Padano, a close relative of Parmigiano, will be nice on a picnic, or on a hot day.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• Apples
• Potatoes
• Vinegar
• Salt
• Grana Padano, in a whole chunk

Preparation:

There are lots of salads that include chunks or flakes of cheese, including Grana Padano. But try this: Take a bowl and combine half pound (200 g) of peeled diced apples with a half pound of peeled steamed diced potatoes. Dissolve a healthy pinch of salt in a tablespoon (or more if you'd rather) of vinegar, combine it with a tablespoon or more of olive oil, and stir the mixture into the apple mixture. Flake a half pound of Grana Padano and stir the flakes into the salad. Chill, and serve. If you want to you can also add thinly sliced radishes or bulb fennel, and don't forget how well cheese goes with pears.
