Insalata 21…31…41
Enrico Crippa · 1971 · Piazza Duomo, Alba, Piedmont
A salad counted by how many leaves, herbs and flowers are in it that morning. The number in the name is not decoration.
Why it works
No single leaf is present enough to dominate, so what you taste is the shape of the whole garden rather than any one plant — the opposite of how a garnish works.
