Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and sprinkle 1 tablespoon Parmesan and 1 tablespoon Prosciutto Bits over the fennel. Next, put down a layer of zucchini and a layer of red cabbage. Once again, season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with Parmesan and Prosciutto Bits. Put down a layer of carrots over the top and finish with a small sprinkling of Parmesan and Prosciutto Bits.

SHAVED ASPARAGUS WITH ARUGULA AND PARMESAN
You can get asparagus from Peru all winter long, and early spring asparagus from Mexico and Southern California. This is not a dish to make with those. It celebrates your local, regional asparagus, whenever it shows up in your local farmers' market, after months of apples, potatoes and sturdy greens. Simply shaved, then dressed with oil and paired with arugula and Parmesan, it makes for a spring salad of enormous satisfaction.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH CHOPPED EGG AND PROSCIUTTO
This salad mimics a traditional salad favored in Switzerland called nüsslisalat mit ei, featuring clusters of mâche (a.k.a. lamb's lettuce or corn salad). Arugula is easier to find in North America, sold as baby arugula or as "wild" arugula, which has jagged leaves. Larger leaves of garden arugula or baby spinach, or a combination, would also work.

Steps:
- Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide arugula among 4 large plates. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate 1 egg over the center of each salad. (Alternatively, press the egg through a wide-meshed sieve or hand-chop.)
- Sprinkle each salad very lightly with salt. Whisk the dressing again and drizzle about 1 1/2 tablespoons over each salad. Drape 2 slices of prosciutto artfully over each salad, if using, and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, young turnips. Look for turnips that are small and firm, with smooth skin and no blemishes.
- If you can't find arugula, you can substitute baby spinach or watercress.
- Use a good quality prosciutto for the best results. Look for prosciutto that is thinly sliced and has a deep red color.
- To make the dressing, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- To assemble the salad, toss the shaved turnips, arugula, and prosciutto together in a large bowl. Drizzle with the dressing and toss to coat.
- Serve the salad immediately, or chill it for up to 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Shaved turnip salad with arugula and prosciutto is a light and refreshing salad that is perfect for a summer meal. The turnips provide a slightly sweet and crunchy base, while the arugula adds a peppery bite. The prosciutto adds a salty and savory flavor that complements the other ingredients perfectly. The dressing is a simple vinaigrette that brings all of the flavors together. This salad is easy to make and can be served as a side dish or main course.
