Salad Cream

Advantages: Perfect for Salads
Disadvantages: None

...In my opinion, a salad is just not a salad without a lovely helping of Heinz Salad Cream. When I lived in the United States they did not have salad cream and I really missed it. Of course you could get lots of other lovely, different flavours of salad dressing but none are quite the same as the humble salad cream. It?s the product that famous chef Marco Pierre White once called, ?The Greatest Culinary Invention of the 20th Century,? and Gary Rhodes called, ?A British Classic.? So, we pretty much are all aware of salad cream, but what exactly is it made of? Its ingredients include vinegar, water, sugar, mustard, and egg yolks. To me, that sort of sounds like a basic mayonnaise type recipe as it does have a bit of a mayonnaise type product base to it but to me it definitely has a very tangy, vinegar based taste. Mixed together, all...

Review of Heinz Salad Cream

Fresh Salad Leaves All Year Round.(Living Salad)

Advantages: Full of vitamins and the taste is outstanding.
Disadvantages: None unless you have a Persian Cat!

...During the summer my garden is a mass of lettuce and rocket plants. In fact these are so prolific, as I grow them in every available space as salad leaves are a passion of mine. It saves a lot of money and the leaves are fresh and succulent, and there for you to pick any time to add to salads and sandwiches or even to stir fry. As summer fades and gives way to autumn these plants are not as successful outside, as I do not have a greenhouse. I do plant winter varieties, but it's a slow process, and often with hit and miss results. I don't like buying salad leaves in bags, as I don't find they keep for very long, and they are often sprayed with chemicals to preserve their life, and I really prefer to pick my salad leaves fresh from the plants. Recently I have discovered a company who produce a tray of salad leaves which are ready...

Toss Mah Salad

Advantages: Growing your own!
Disadvantages: Um.. um.. um..

...The best salads, to my mind, are the simplest ones. There's nothing complicated about salad, and neither should there be. What could be nicer than a gorgeous pile of green leaves with a tiny trickle of tangy French Dressing, or a potato salad in a light mayonnaise with plenty of chives? I love salads, they're made from yummy, fresh ingredients, they're quick, they're easy and you don't even have to cook them! So, salad making chez Murphy: First things first I think: dressings. Before you start mixing and matching your salad concoctions you'll need something to dress them with. Don't buy those nasty smelly bottled ones from the supermarket; make your own gorgeous, tasty, sweet and tangy ones. My mother taught me how to be snotty about salad dressings you know. But really, what's the point in creating wonderful salads from all...

Addicted to this salad!

Advantages: healthy, tastes nice, popular
Disadvantages: none

...Caesar salad is a very light and healthy type of salad that is made from Romaine lettuce leaves, cheese,caesar salad dressing and also you can put crunchy croutons in too which are included in the Waitrose Caesar salad. I believe caesar salad originates from Italy by an Italian chef who was in Mexico at the time but there are conflicting reports so I'm not sure. You can also add mustard, lemon juice, worchestor sauce, mayonnaise and chicken to add flavour. The cheese that is used for Waitrose's caesar salad is called Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese which is an Italian cheese. It is slightly different to the original cheese that was used in caesar salad as it orignally was made with Parmesan cheese which is a similar tasting cheese. I often add caesar salad to a meal with a chicken portion or anything similar, somtimes as a replacement...

Colourfull Strawberry and Cucumber Salad

Advantages: Healthy Colourfull Easy to Prepare
Disadvantages: Not Many

...In these health conscious times,have you noticed how salads are increasingly becoming a more prominent part of the average Briton?s diet.? ?Conventional? side salads, of course, have long been a feature of British cuisine but throwing our conservative instincts to one side and not being too squeamish, can result in some delectable salad offerings, which are tasty, healthy,unconventional and very colourful. Gastronomy, the science of good eating, after all is all about balance, taste, colour and texture and salads can certainly help meet those requirements as well as being as great accompaniment to a savoury course. Soft-fruits such as strawberries, for which Britain is renowned, are traditionally eagerly devoured with a smattering of caster sugar and a whirl of whipped cream. However, strawberries can also be part of a salad...

pasta salad..tastyyy :)

Advantages: I can vary vegetables how i want
Disadvantages: I cant stop myself for noodle salad :S

...Noodle salad tastes best of all with grilled meat or meat balls. You can eat it also without something else too. It is in general much tasty. The noodle salad can be kept for 1-2 days in the fridge. Some persons like to eat it more after 1 day, because the noodles have taken up the taste of other ingredients. Ingredients ----------------------- 500 g noodles --- best are spiral noodles (take up the marinade well) 4 eggs 500 g chicken sausage 4-5 tomatoes Red and yellow pepper (1 of every kind) 1 small glass of pickles 250 g mayonnaise Mustard Salt Pepper Preparation ------------------------- Cook the 500 g noodles approx. 8 min. in salted water, then rinse with cold water and let cool down. Cook 4 eggs approx. 10 min (they must be hard cooked), put them in cold water than peel and cut in small cubes. Cut 500 g chicken sausage in cubes...
