I made a parsley salad day-after-day for weeks after that decision. And no, I am not exaggerating in any respect. Years later, this salad continues to be widespread on our desk.

Parsley Salad

My pals, I encourage you to not let the identify of this salad flip you away. If you have not tried a salad with loads of contemporary parsley, you are actually lacking out.

Contemporary parsley brightens savory flavors the identical method lemon brightens a dish and easily makes it style higher. That is one in all my all-time favourite salad garnishes and I am unable to suggest it sufficient.

I exploit Italian or flat leaf parsley for the salad, however any contemporary parsley will work nicely. If you do not have Italian parsley, purchase a bunch of the curly selection on the grocery store in your salad.

Now I hold the French dressing in my pantry and use it in virtually all of the salads I make with fruit or a candy contact to the salad.

Mild, candy, spicy and with sufficient oil to coat the salad with out weighing it down. I posted the recipe individually as a double batch, simply to have some within the fridge for future salads.
