Time 20m

Yield Four to six servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds fresh bean sprouts
1/4 pound snow peas
Salt to taste, if desired
1/2 pound cooked, smoked ham, such as Westphalian
1/2 pound cooked, roast smoked turkey or plain boneless breast of turkey, available in supermarkets
1 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped scallions
1/2 cup thinly sliced water chestnuts
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander, optional
2 teaspoons imported mustard
1 egg
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 cup peanut, vegetable or corn oil
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • If you desire, pick over the bean sprouts to remove and discard the tiny curlicues at the top and/or bottom. Put the bean sprouts in a salad bowl.
  • Drop the snow peas into a basin of boiling water lightly seasoned with salt. Bring to the boil and drain. Chill under cold running water. Drain. Add to the bean sprouts.
  • Cut the ham and turkey breast into very fine shreds. There should be about two cups of each. Add this to the bowl.
  • Add the celery, scallions and water chestnuts. Sprinkle with the coriander.
  • To make the salad dressing, blend the mustard, egg, ginger and vinegar in a mixing bowl. Start beating with a wire whisk while gradually adding the oil. Add salt and pepper.
  • Serve the salad and salad dressing separately if desired. Or toss the salad with the dressing.
