Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe raspberries: The quality of your raspberries will greatly affect the flavor of your salad. Look for berries that are plump, brightly colored, and free of blemishes.
- Use a light touch when tossing the salad: Raspberries are delicate, so be gentle when mixing them with the other ingredients. A heavy hand can easily bruise the berries and make them mushy.
- Serve the salad immediately: Raspberry salad is best enjoyed fresh. The berries will start to break down and lose their flavor if they sit for too long.
- Add some extra crunch: If you want to add some extra texture to your salad, try adding some chopped nuts or seeds. Walnuts, pecans, and sunflower seeds are all good choices.
- Make it a main course: Raspberry salad can be a light and refreshing main course, especially on a hot summer day. Just add some grilled chicken, salmon, or tofu for protein.
