Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the smoked ham with another type of meat?
Yes, you can substitute smoked ham with prosciutto, turkey, or even cooked chicken for a different flavor profile. For a vegetarian version, consider using grilled or roasted vegetables.
What is the best way to store leftovers from this salad?
To store leftovers, place the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best consumed within a day to ensure freshness, but you can separate any ingredients like figs or dressing to maintain texture.
What can I do if I don't have fresh figs?
If fresh figs are unavailable, you can use dried figs rehydrated in warm water or a little apple juice. Alternatively, you could substitute with sliced pears or apples for a different but complementary sweetness.
