Vegetable salads. Vegetable salads

The recipe for a long and healthy life is simple. According to nutritionists, you need to eat seven servings of fruits and vegetables a day to protect against many serious illnesses. Also, proper nutrition, which is based on daily consumption of vegetables and fruits, is a guarantee of delicate skin, thick hair and beautiful nails. Whatever one may say, vegetables are “our everything,” and their variety allows you to not get bored with salads all your life.

Before making a salad, be sure to thoroughly wash and cut the vegetables. They may also undergo some cooking. For example, for beet salad, beets are boiled or baked. There are many warm salads in which vegetables are also processed - for example, onions are sautéed with carrots. Of course, the healthiest vegetable salads are mixtures of raw ingredients.

Vegetables in salads go well with any food - meat, poultry, fish, seafood, mushrooms, cheese, nuts, herbs, eggs.

The taste of the salad is largely determined by the dressing used. The number of dressings for vegetable salads is amazing in its diversity. These are not only the well-known vegetable oil, sour cream, mayonnaise, yogurt, but original healthy sauces that are prepared from healthy ingredients and are significantly superior to fatty mayonnaise. For example, a salad of bok choy, potatoes, eggs, cucumber and green beans can be dressed with peanut sauce, which is made from peanuts, fish sauce, honey, coconut milk, onion, garlic and hot red pepper. Another original option for a healthy diet is ginger dressing. You can season carrot salad with it. To prepare ginger dressing, ginger and nuts are crushed and mixed with oil, honey and lemon juice.

For cabbage and carrot salads, a suitable dressing is prepared from a mixture of lemon and orange juice, to which chopped onions, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, paprika and sunflower oil are added.

Soy sauce is suitable for salads with seafood, as well as almost any oriental recipes. It can be used as a “mono” component, or you can add rice vinegar and sesame oil.

You can also use vegetable oil for dressing. Just remember that the best option is olive oil, the basis of Mediterranean cuisine, which is rightfully considered the healthiest cuisine in the world. Garlic, mustard and lemon dressings are also in the forefront. The salad will get a piquant taste by using sesame oil and grape seed oil.

In addition to the classic combination of cucumbers and tomatoes with sour cream, you can choose other, more complex and interesting vegetable salad bases.
