The fried artichoke salad at Katie’s Pizza & Pasta Osteria is a balancing act of temperatures and textures. Blooming in hot oil, the crisp, tender fried artichokes are the stars, supported by roasted asparagus on a bed of dark leafy greens. Studded with dollops of tangy goat cheese, pistachios and a drizzle of syrupy aged balsamic, this salad makes the perfect start to pizza.
