Tips:

  • Select vibrant broccoli and cauliflower: Choose broccoli and cauliflower florets that are firm, compact, and deeply colored. Avoid any florets that have signs of wilting or bruising.
  • Cut the vegetables evenly: Uniformly sized florets will cook evenly and look more visually appealing in the salad.
  • Roast the vegetables to perfection: Roasting brings out the natural sweetness and intensifies the flavors of the vegetables. Keep an eye on the vegetables while they are roasting to prevent overcooking.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. This saves time when assembling the salad.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices add a burst of flavor to the salad. If using dried herbs, use half the amount as fresh.
  • Serve the salad warm or cold: This salad can be served warm or cold, depending on your preference. If serving warm, let the salad cool slightly before adding the dressing.
