I am not
sure what defines “salad” but I am pretty sure a Waldorf Salad may be crossing a line. This
salad is just too good to be true. First created in
1893 by the maître d’hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria in New York City, this salad
has become a classic. It is perfect for special occasions, parties, luncheons
or just a great fall meal.
For those unfamiliar with a
Waldorf Salad let me enlighten you. A Waldorf Salad is a delectable mix of assorted fruits and nuts
with a wonderful combination of sweet and savory tastes. An all-around party
for your taste buds!
