Super Salads!
Salads are the perfect solution for
people who like to give free rein to their imagination when
cooking. Who says only vegetables go with vegetables? Citrus fruit,
strawberries, pears, star fruit, apples and grapes can add a touch
of freshness and colour to tossed greens. Bored with ho-hum salads?
Mix in bean sprouts, celeriac, avocado, endives, grated zucchini.
For a complete meal, include eggs, cheese, nuts, chicken or another
protein food in your salad.It’s another great way to jazz up a salad. Cut up some
vegetables (zucchini, sweet peppers, corn, green onions), baste
with a little olive oil, sprinkle with dried herbs and broil in the
oven on a baking sheet or grill on the barbecue, turning once
during cooking. Mix them into the salad or serve as a side
dish.
The word, derived from the Niçois "mesclumo", designates
a mixture of various greens (chervil, chicory, oakleaf lettuce,
dandelion greens, lamb’s lettuce, purslane, escarole,
raddichio). A practical solution for smashing salads with lots of
colour and flavour! Serve with a simple dressing of olive oil and
balsamic vinegar for a quick and easy first course.
