salad

O mine, I eat rice and salads this morning, love the combination. Who else like it ?

This pasta salad is perfectly portable with no danger of the pasta going ‘clumpy’. The aromatic tarragon adds a twist of anise flavour to the earthy taste of broad beans. The preserved lemon and lots of lemon zest keeps this salad feeling fresh and lively. Adding a few chilli flakes looks pretty...

Hi all. I am trying to come up with a recipe for a red vampire salad but I can't find a recipe anywhere that pleases me. None of them quite have the ingredients I want. I could just throw the veggies together in a bowl and serve it, but I want to get the proportions right so I can recreate it...

Seeing Yorky's thread about his ham salad sandwich brought back memories of my mom making ground ham salad or bologna salad sandwiches for lunches in the summer. She would get out the table top/clamp on meat grinder and grind up either ham or bologna, followed with a grinding of onions and...

I'd forgotten how much I love this way of eating. This was a meal I made when I was staying at my friend's earlier this week. It was intended to use up bits of things left over but it transpired to be a feast! The great thing is you can take your time picking at things in various combinations...

A sister thread to Main/starter course salads. What do you make? My favourite are Tabouli Sliced tomatoes and onions wiuth salt, lemon juice (or cider vinegar) and olive/rapeseed oil. Sometimes basil. Green salad: mixture of leaves with spring onion and cucumber and sometimes avocado. Tinned...

How often do you eat salad as a main course or starter? To many of us, its usually a side dish but recently (partly due to the Recipe challenge featuring parsley), I've been making main course and starter salads. There are a few obvious well known main/starter course salads such as Waldorf Salad...

@timmyc wrote in another thread about freshening up parsley Well, I knew this trick but had completely forgotten about it so thanks @timmyc! I had some parsley which had gone distinctly limp and pretty well unusable and was about to throw it out - but then I remembered and plunged it into iced...

A classic Salade Niçoise with a colourful twist. I used blue dyed hard-boiled eggs but you don't have to - they really don't taste any different but do provide a talking point! Ingredients (serves 2, generously) 3-4 shelled hard-boiled eggs Red cabbage to dye the eggs (optional) 200g good...

A simple salad, best made when the potatoes are still warm to allow the dressing to soak in. Ingredients (serves 1 to 2) 5 boiled new potatoes, cut into halves (100g) 5 baby heritage toms, cut into halves A handful of flat-leaved parsley (leaves only) 50g frozen baby broad beans 1 tbsp Extra...

I love Salade Niçoise but I'm well aware that its not a recipe set in stone. Some include green beans and some don't. Some include potatoes (mine does). Lettuce or another type of salad leaf? Hard boiled eggs are often included but there are recipes that don't. What type of fish? Anchovies are...

“Cut some pickled herring into pieces and mix with flaked lax, 2 peeled apples and 2 boiled potatoes. Cut into dice pieces; add some chopped shallots and gherkins; sprinkle with finely minced tarragon and chervil, salt and pepper. Cover with a plain salad dressing.” — 1908. At one point, I...

family coming tomorrow so I'm making the above salad, a fave with the kids grandkids. Pics will follow but it includes a store bought pre cooked chicken. I'm going for quick and easy. Lettuce I use is baby salad leaves and some iceberg I have grown here, I add sticks of cucumber, grated carrot...

Which do you prefer? It seems that soft salad leaves have become increasingly popular here judging by the supermarket shelves - offerings such as rocket (arugula), lambs lettuce, oak leaf, chard, baby leaf spinach etc. which are often sold ready washed in mixed salad bags. I much prefer crisp...
