Frequently asked questions

How do you make a good dressing?

The classic base: 3 parts olive oil, 1 part vinegar or lemon, salt, pepper and a pinch of mustard. Shake it well in a jar until it comes together.

Can I prepare a salad in advance?

You can wash and chop the vegetables, but add the dressing only just before serving so the leaves do not wilt.

How do you turn a salad into a main course?

Add a source of protein — roast chicken, tuna, eggs, pulses or cheese — and you have a filling meal.
