waldorf salad




Waldorf is a classic fruit salad with apples and oranges, and whatever else you fancy. The one I made yesterday was more or less according to the book. Many people suggest serving it over lettuce, but I just shredded some lettuce into the mix.




- juice of 1 and 1/2 lemon
- 2 slightly tart apples, cubed
- 1 celery stalk, minced
- 2 oranges, cut into small pieces
- large handful of raisins
- about a handful of nice lettuce (radaccio, lollo rosso), shredded
- about 2/3 cup firm yogurt
- dash of cream
- 1 tsp of honey
- 40g of walnut, pieces or halves

Squeeze lemon juice into the salad bowl. Cut apples (I didn't peel them) and bathe them in lemon juice so they don't turn brown. Add other fruits and lettuce. About 5 minutes before serving: Mix yogurt with cream and honey, pour over salad, top with walnuts. I tend to make this quite 'wet', ie with lots of dressing.
