WALDORF SALAD



Waldorf Salad image

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.

THE ORIGINAL WALDORF SALAD



The Original Waldorf Salad image

"Millions who never visited the Waldorf owe him a debt," The New York Times wrote in 1950, upon Oscar Tschirky's death. Mr. Tschirky, a Swiss immigrant who became known as "Oscar of the Waldorf," is credited with creating this piece of Americana in 1893, a timeless dish whose popularity has spread far past the Waldorf's exclusive doors and into home kitchens. Over time, variations would include blue cheese, raisins and chopped walnuts, which can be added here alongside the celery and apples. But the original is an exercise in simplicity: four ingredients that have lived on for over a century.

CHICKEN BACON RANCH SALAD



Chicken Bacon Ranch Salad image

I always seem to have leftover cooked chicken. This simple, tasty salad is a great use of your leftover chicken, either white meat, dark meat, or a combination! Romaine lettuce, cooked chicken, avocado, and cherry tomatoes combine with ranch dressing, and everything is topped off with crunchy bacon. Use purchased ranch salad dressing, or stir up one of the buttermilk dressing recipes on the site. Enjoy for a hearty lunch with some crackers, or for dinner, with a crusty bread. This recipe is proportioned for one person, but it's easy to double or triple for your needs.

WALDORF SALAD



Waldorf Salad image

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.

Sweet and Spicy Candied Pecans

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh, seasonal ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your salad will taste. When possible, buy produce from local farmers markets or organic farms.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to salad recipes. Don't be afraid to try new ingredients and combinations. You might be surprised at what you create!
  • Use a variety of textures and flavors: A good salad should have a variety of textures and flavors. This will make it more interesting and enjoyable to eat. Add crunchy vegetables, creamy dressings, and salty or sweet toppings.
  • Don't overdress your salad: A little dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing can overwhelm the other flavors in your salad.
  • Serve your salad immediately: Salads are best when they are served immediately after they are made. This will prevent the vegetables from wilting and the dressing from separating.
