The preparation
Pasta
Put 2-3l of fresh water on to boil for the pasta. When the water boils, add 1-1½ tbsp salt and then the BSCHÜSSIG Urschweizer Gletscher Hüetli and cook "Al Dente" according to the time indicated on the packaging (approx. 7-9 minutes). So that you don't miss the time, set the kitchen timer for the shorter time and try the consistency of the pasta from time to time. When it is done, drain the pasta and add a few knobs of butter or a little olive oil, if you like, and mix it in.
Salad
While the Gletscher Hüetli are cooking, cut the other ingredients, the ham, gherkins, pear and melon into small pieces, halve the tomatoes and put everything in a bowl. Depending on your preference, you can add the pasta warm or cold.
Sauce
Finely chop the shallot, then mix all the sauce ingredients together. Season with the mustard (to taste) and spices and add the chopped herbs.
Sideboards
Mix the salad and pour the sauce over it. Peel and quarter the boiled eggs
and place on top as a garnish.
The pasta salad tastes best when it has been allowed to soak in for about half an hour. In summer it goes well with
It is an excellent refreshment with grilled meat or, of course, out of the rucksack when hiking or for "lunch" in the swimming pool...
