Cured beef with goats’ cheese dressing recipe

You can’t get more elegant and flavourful than cured beef with goats’ cheese dressing. Bresaola is a Lombardia speciality from the Valtellina valley. It is raw beef fillet that has been salted, marinated in wine and herbs and then air-dried to give it a lovely, delicate flavour. It is sliced very thinly to serve as an antipasto, traditionally with oil, lemon juice and black pepper.
