Mushroom, Spinach and Parma Ham Salad

The mushroom used in this Italian recipe, Caesar's mushroom, is undoubtedly one of the prettiest and most delicate mushrooms, and it would be a sin to cook with it. Caesar's mushroom belongs to the nastiest family, the Amanitas, which includes many of the most poisonous mushrooms. But identify it well, or buy it in season from a reliable vendor, and you will enjoy a real delight.
