Handy Kitchen Tools For Making Salads
- Keep salad greens fresh and not soggy from rinsing by using a salad spinner or collapsible salad spinner (I love the collapsible ones that don’t take up a lot of space in the kitchen). It’s a simple investment to help you make a good salad.
- If you are in a hurry a vegetable chopper is a handy tool to own and use.
- Chef knife and paring/ultility knife.
- A vegetable peeler, garlic press, and lemon/lime juicer are handy tools for making salads.
- Meat thermometer if you are grilling meat for topping the salads.
- Salad tongs like this and a large salad bowl are must-haves for mixing and serving salad.
- And if you love making homemade dressing? Get this salad dressing shaker.
What to put on Salads?
- Salad dressings can be homemade or store-bought dressings. Top salads with creamy dressing, vinaigrettes, Balsamic dressings, Champagne dressing…
- Get out of a rut and top your salads with fresh, seasonal fruits. Sliced onions, bell peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, jicama, and other vegetables. Top salads with sunflower seeds, chia seeds, nuts such as walnuts, pecans, almonds, and even hemp seeds.
- Adding fresh avocadoes gives salads a layer of creaminess. Avocadoes are good for you and include healthy fats.
- Add eggs, chicken, steak, and other proteins to make your salad a complete meal. The addition of beans such as chickpeas, black beans, and kidney beans is good for protein and fiber. And a good substitute for vegetarian salads.
- I love green onions and shallots on my salads, adding a flavorful taste to the salad.
- Brighten up your salads with parsley, Italian parsley, and chives.
- For any season, especially in the fall and winter add dried fruits to salads. Dried cherries, cranberries, raisins, dates…
- Use whole grains such as faro, quinoa, and couscous…
- Try adding red or yellow beets for flavor and texture.
- Top salads with crunchy toppings like tortilla chips, tortilla strips, Doritos, crackers…
- Think outside the box by adding black olives, green olives, kalamata olives, canned artichoke hearts…
