Les Terroirs de Marrakech Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500 ml

Le Terroir de Marrakech Ancienne Oliveraie is an ultra-premium extra virgin olive oil which comes from an old centenary orchard on an estate in Marrakech. In the beautiful flat land at the foot of the High Atlas, where even Baron Rothschild used to cultivate his grapes, you find the historic centenary olive grove belonging to Mr Breton. Their family carries on this century-old tradition producing what is likely to be the best pure Moroccan extra virgin olive oil produced. This invaluable oil, with a limited production of 25,000 liters and its 0.4° maximum acidity, is hand-selected from the best Picholine du Languedoc olives.

Flavor Profile: A well balanced, almost sweet, early harvest oil with a fresh herbal taste. It features mild fruit, green apple and artichoke notes, and a distinct peppery finish. Le Terroir de Marrakech Ancienne Oliveraie is an exclusive product with a genuine taste which retraces the story of its terroir to the nose and palate.

(We prefer Yukon Gold or Red Bliss variety for this salad)
2 Tablespoons Harissa with Preserved Lemon
4 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Garnish:
1/2 cup chopped pitted black olives
Handful chopped parsley or cilantro

Prosciutto & Melon Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette

Serves 4

For The Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 Teaspoon dijon mustard
1/2 Teaspoon finely chopped fresh oregano
1/2 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Fiori & Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method
Whisk together vinegar, mustard, and oregano in a bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, a little bit at a time, whisking vigorously until dressing is emulsified. After about half of the oil has been incorporated you can drizzle it in faster, but start out very slow at the beginning to create a nice, stable emulsion.

To Prepare The Salad

Ingredients
8 ounces mixed tender greens
1 ripe cantaloupe, scooped into balls or sliced into bite-sized chunks
8 ounces small mozzarella balls (ciliegine or bocconcini), halved
8-10 slices prosciutto, cut or torn into bite-sized pieces

Method
Rinse and dry greens. Toss with a few tablespoons of dressing until evenly coated. Arrange in a serving bowl, then top with melon balls, mozzarella balls and prosciutto. Drizzle with more vinaigrette as desired, and sprinkle with Fiori & Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
