Asparagus strawberry salad with miso dressing and parmesan

Even though the web is just full of delicious recipes with strawberries and asparagus, I don’t miss the time to imagine a slightly different version that it really has in it. The fresh taste of strawberry and asparagus should be in the foreground, but supported by a pleasant depth, which offers with Parmesan and Miso an excellent addition to the fresh components.

If I had the choice for a second headline, it would probably be umami. Because this recipe is all about it in the true sense of the mind. Of course, you have to explain what Umami is.

Umami is the so-called fifth taste in addition to the four existing tastes. In addition to sweet, sour, salty and bitter, the word umami adds the fifth property “tasty, spicy”. I know that this is still a very thin explanation for the layman. If you dive a little deeper into the matter, it gets easier. In colloquial terms, umami is very often associated with glutamate, which are actually glutamic acids, which are often found in meat, fish and dairy foods, but also in vegetables or algae. The release of glutamic acid is then released by cooking, drying or fermentation.

Glutamates are particularly common in fully ripe or dried foods. Dried tomatoes, cheese (especially parmesan), seasoning sauces (soy, fish sauce, miso) are a good example of the frequent occurrence of natural glutamates. Here you can find a table for the glutamate content in food in .

In this appetizer, every component really has its absolute raison d’etre. Misodressing acts as a component emulsifier to combine freshness with depth. Even though Pistazie and Waldmeister act as supporting actors at first glance, they have nevertheless become an important component. A really tasty dish, which you should definitely try at home.
