Strawberry and Arugula Salad with Manchego Fricos
Italian for "little trifles," a frico is a lacy wafer of crispy fried cheese. They're made by cooking little piles of finely shredded cheese until the cheese starts to bubble and brown slightly around the edges. Sometimes a bit of flour or herbs is mixed in. They are absolutely delicious as a garnish for a salad or soup. Here they're made with Manchegom, a Spanish sheep's milk cheese. You can make them with Parmesan or cheddar as well.
