30 - Sunday, May 19, 1985 - North Shore News 5 THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF FOOD Mona Brun How many times have you chosen a restaurant for lunch or dinner because of its super salad bar? If your family is like mine, the answer will be “quite often’. | think that the invention of the salad bar with its selection of crisp, cool inviting vegetables combined with interesting toppings and -‘go-withs’ plus a selection of dressings is the greatest thing since sliced bread. You don't have to wait until you are in a restaurant to enjoy a salad bar, of course. It's fun to make one up at home. Our produce department makes this easy. Remember the same car- dinal rules apply for you as for the restaurateur. Greens must be FRESH! Let's start with lettuce ~~ you can have a tossed green salad or a selection of lettuces, torn into bite- size pieces — red, ro- maine, butter, endive, iceberg, to name a few. | prefer tomato wedges in a separate bowl as they are inclined to make the let- tuce watery if they stand too long. But by all means top the lettuces with chop- ped green onions. A bowl of carrot, celery, turnip and jicama sticks is an excellent addition. Sliced cucumbers are a must. Use the long English variety, run the tines of a fork down the sides, slice on the bias. Alfalfa sprouts —- superb! Fresh beans, of asparagus in season, cooked and chilled, or served raw. Garbanzo and kidney beans. The small canned corn cobs. Avocado wedges, marinated artichoke hearts, raw cauliflowerets. Toppings — Parmesan cheese, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, raisins. crisp cooked crumbled bacon, croutons of your choice, Dressings — oil and vinegar, Italian, French, .Bleu cheese are standbys. The beauty of a salad | - bar is that you can return what is left over to the fridge for later use. Salad greens stored on their own keep far longer than when they have been made into a salad. ; ADVERTISEMENT om | FreshCod | Pink : 39.99 | , - . | 7%, ox. tin 17 he 7 [SAVE “86°, Se pest 5).
