I will launch my cooking blog introducing you a very simple recipe with spontaneus herbs, particularly red poppy, also known ass papaver rhoeas (or rosola in Italian).

Poppies are easy to spot during spring but also in winter.

Papaver rhoeas salad:

Use only the smallest and most tender poppies.

• 50 g. of clean papaver rhoeas for each person
• extra virgin olive oil
• traditional balsamic vinegar of Modena
• salt

Put the herbs in bowl and mix thoroughly with olive oil, then add salt and some drops of traditional balsamic vinegar.

Note: this dish is appropriate as an appetizer in special events and fancy dinners.
