Useful Tips

Salad is a wonderful opportunity for the hostess to demonstrate ingenuity and imagination. I’ll tell you how I cooked New Year’s salads, how and with what ingredients I replace in case of absence.

1. Poultry meat goes well with mushrooms, carrots and boiled potatoes. The delicate taste of meat is complemented by nuts, salad leaves and fruits: prunes, dried apricots, pineapples, apples and oranges. Based on these products, you will get an excellent salad.
2. If there is no poultry meat, take squid meat. The main thing is to prepare it correctly. It is enough to dip the meat in hot water for 15 minutes. Seafood can lose taste if you overdo it during cooking. Scallops, shrimp and other marine life are thermally processed in minutes.
3. Dishes from fresh lettuce leaves look wonderful. True, you can’t cook in advance, because they become soft, lose color and volume. If you want to preserve the vitamins and presentation of the leaves, tear them with your hands, and do not cut with a knife.
4. If there is no drying for leaves, after washing, shake and place on a paper towel for a quarter of an hour. During this time, they will dry out.
5. Season salads with leaves and herbs just before serving.
