The food photography was quite nice but some shots did not depict the salad as it was described in the recipe. Some recipes are simple, others more complex, some include ingredients too pricey for me but overall decent recipes and ideas you can apply to many ingredients.
For a long time I have eaten a salad almost every day. The ingredients change with the seasons. If you ha 3. If you have never made many salads with other than lettuce with store bought dressing you may be inspired by this variety in this book.

Categorized by season and accompanied by vivid photographs of all or most recipes a plus, since many of them were combinations I was unfamiliar with , Saladish offers mix of techniques and flavors that elevate the idea of a salad.
I loved the focus on flavor and texture, and am eagerly awaiting its publication. I also appreciated that the index was clearly written, even though the ARC lacks final pagination. Netga This cookbook is a delicious addition to the growing list of salad-focused titles. Netgalley Review. Jul 12, False rated it liked it Shelves: food-drink. A contemporary method of preparing seasonal salads. I saved a few recipes to try, but overall, when you have to buy less than common ingredients or invest in the creation and preparation of equally odd sauces, you have to factor in costs and labor for one salad.
Yes, it's "that" kind of book. And somehow the idea of "tofu skin" salad is less than appealing. Jun 18, Joob rated it really liked it. Some of the ingredients, especially the vegetables themselves, seem completely inaccessible--you'd have to live in New York or somewhere next to a lot of farmer's markets and international markets. I know that you're supposed to use this partially as inspiration and you can easily modify many of the recipes, but I'm really interested in trying the recipes as written.
However, I did enjoy learning about new ingredients. She makes a point to explain many of them. Most of the recipes are fairly eas Some of the ingredients, especially the vegetables themselves, seem completely inaccessible--you'd have to live in New York or somewhere next to a lot of farmer's markets and international markets.
Most of the recipes are fairly easy to put together. I appreciated that the book encourages using parts of vegetables that many people discard.

I have a minimalist side to me as well as a maximalist side. There's a simple cucumber salad in the book that has a sweet lime vinegar, tarragon and black sesame seeds.
They're thinly sliced cucumbers, and I think that is something that looks very elegant, just by being itself. RP: One of the things I love about the book is the asides that reflect your attention to detail. There's simple things like toasting the grains before you cook them, crisping and curling the shaved vegetables in ice water, and defining what size and shape bowl you want things to be served in.
That kind of finesse is important in all kinds of cooking, but why is it especially important with salads? What are some of your favorite tips? IR: I'm not so sure that it's more important with salad, except perhaps people think of the whole course with the salad as an aside; it really deserves as much attention as one gives all the rest of the things that go on the table. As far as finesse goes, there are two tips that come to mind. One is layering, which when I make food at my shop is particularly important if something is going to be served, not necessarily the moment that it's assembled, but a little-to-quite a bit later.
If you have delicate things, perhaps a sprig of an herb or a gentle leaf that's mixed in with heavier items and dressing, we layer it in instead of tossing it all together. Then, as it's going into its serving plate, the more delicate pieces can be layered; it helps them from being mangled, crushed in and deflated. Another place where I've been using that lately, we are doing something with roasted eggplant and it has pickled shiitake mushrooms, chive buds and Enoki mushrooms. Most people may or may not know that Enoki mushrooms are quite delicate and bright white.
So, I mixed some into the entire salad and then as I layer it in, I just add some on top. Not only does it keep them from being crushed at the top of it, but as you go down the bright white color remains because it hasn't been all tossed with the darker dressing.
Another thing that is important to know is I really I worship leftovers, and I think the next day things can taste just as well or even better, they just may not look so fabulous. So, if you go through, pick out wilted herbs or leaves or whatever pieces of greens are there, replace them with fresh ones, and add a little bit of reserve dressing or olive oil and salt to taste, it can make today just as good as yesterday.
RP: You allow a lot of room for cooks to adapt your ideas and make them their own. You've got a series of flow charts; there's one for eggplant salad I really loved. Can you give us a taste of how this whole flow chart approach works?
IR: It was hard for me to initially, when working on the book, to force things into very specific recipes. There's nothing wrong with that. The idea of always slavishly following a recipe goes a bit against my intuitive, spontaneous way of thinking. So, we have a few of what you're calling flow charts, or grids.
