The lackluster side salad gets a meal-worthy makeover in this new collection from the editors of Food52.com. Like Mindy Fox's Salads: Beyond the Bowl and Jane Baxter and John Vincent's LEON Happy Salads, this book contains multiple categories of salad (e.g., grain and bean, fish and seafood, meat) to suit all tastes and occasions. Sixty recipes—including roasted potato salad with mustard-walnut vinaigrette, lemony Greek pasta salad, and grilled lobster salad with lemon-thyme butter—emphasize variety, drawing on flavorful components such as fresh herbs and toasted nuts for vibrancy and zest. Half are new; the rest are "greatest hits" from the Food52 community.
VERDICT Use this cookbook to revive sad salads and workplace lunches. If salads are your preferred meal, consider adding it to your personal collection.
