WALDORF SALAD
This simple apple salad got its name from the luxurious Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York. Invented in 1896 not by a chef but by the maître d'hôtel Oscar Tschirky, the Waldorf salad was an instant success. As often happens, many variations evolved-some with raisins, some with chopped nuts. This one has green apples and red seedless grapes.

WALDORF SALAD
This is the original Waldorf Salad recipe which I clipped out of the newspaper several years ago. My mother made this salad often--it must have been a favorite of hers also. Newer versions have left out some of the ingredients which add variety in texture and taste. It's a classic American salad which was developed by the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your salad.
- Don't overcook the chicken. It should be cooked through, but still juicy and tender.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the apple and celery. This will help to prevent them from browning.
- Add the nuts and raisins just before serving. This will help to keep them from getting soggy.
- If you don't have any mayonnaise on hand, you can substitute Greek yogurt or sour cream.
