Summer is here, the weather is hot, the salad and our thoughts often turn to a cool, refreshing. It was not always so. His youngest only in the past, going strictly by accompanying the main dish salads have been. trip was made in a lot of mistakes.
There are very few foods, the salad can not be processed. Some salads can be very complicated and some are very simple. In some cases, groups for large salads are used. For example, lastWeekend steak left can be transformed into a large main course. You can make your own blend, to do everything from the ground and have a wonderful salad. On the other hand, you can store to buy a kit from your Caesar salad, throw some shrimp, steak and a few tomatoes left and has a large shell with little effort. Order your version of Surf and Turf.
A word of warning. Please do not use a salad as an excuse to cover undercookedFood. If you burned the chicken will taste better in a salad. If the salad is limp, is still slow if you throw in a salad. And if you do not even cooked green beans, salad Nicoise think. Produce must contain fresh ingredients and masterful leftovers, nothing more.
The association is really half the salad and then the first class. Please do not insult the salad, and your guests with lite or fatfree medication. If you are obsessed with cutting few calories, eating less salad. Speaking of dress, many people use too much though. Dressings not only moisten the ingredients drown!
Here is a recipe for a fruit salad with my education. I came because I do not really like the ubiquitous poppy seed dressing, the salad is served up so far though.
First, select a variety of seasonal fruit or your favoriteand cut into small pieces. I like watermelon, Canteloup, slices of apple, pineapple and seedless grapes. I also add strawberries or other berrries when they are in season.
The association is as follows and the recipe is for two people:
1 / 2 package of mixed greens or baby romaine lettuce torn into small pieces and chilled.
1 8 oz carton sour cream
1 1 / 3 tablespoons of honey. (More if you like a sweet sauce)
1 / 4 cup orange juice
Place greens on aFruit plate and the tip in order. Mix all other ingredients and mix together the salad give. Pass extra dressing.
These other salad is so simple is actually a recipe. I took one of my favorite cookbooks, White Trash Cooking by Ernest Matthew Mickler to the deceased. Do not look at them and dismiss from power - is a wonderful thing as a salad of lettuce and tomato salad without bread.
Remove wash a head of iceberg lettuce, andCut into 2 inch pieces. Cut three tomatoes into quarters and then cut the quarters. Toss with mayonnaise well enough to hold more generous. Season with salt and pepper. If you have more moisture, improbable, only a couple of tablespoons of vinegar.
Note: If you can not very well, Home Grown with tomatoes, lettuce is still good but not great.
