Pairing with Cold rice with salmon, arugula, cherry tomatoes

Summer Symphony

Cold Rice with salmon, aragula and Pachino tomatoes is a triumph of summer flavours. The rice is enriched with slices of smoked salmon, creating a rich and savoury base. Aragula adds a peppery, fresh note, while cherry tomatoes sweeten the palate. All this is enlivened by lemon zest, which adds an aromatic touch and enhances the freshness of the dish. And if you’re unsure which wine to choose, we recommend three.

Ingredients for 4 persons

  • Parboiled rice: 400 gr.
  • Smoked salmon: 200 gr.
  • Arugula: 250 gr.
  • Pachino tomatoes: 300 gr.
  • Lemon zest: to taste
  • Salt: to taste
  • Pepper: to taste
  • Mayonnaise or mustard: your choice to accompany

To prepare your cold summer rice, start by dicing the smoked salmon. Wash, dry and chop the arugula and add to the salmon. Wash the Pachino tomatoes, cut into two or four pieces and add to the mix. Season with oil and a little salt, remembering that the salmon is already tasty. For the rice, choose the yellow variety, perfect for cold salads. Cook in salted water according to the instructions on the packet, drain and leave to cool. Add the rice to the dressing, stirring gently. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Serve the cold rice well chilled and garnish with the zest of a well-washed lemon. This summer rice salad can be served with mayonnaise and mustard if you like.
