Making of a Great Salad

George Hirsch June 11, 2024

Les Salades Composées

George_Hirsch_Greens.jpg

George's Garden Mesclun Greens

The best salad is not complicated but made with the freshest possible greens and garnishes. Les Salades composées or mixed green salad can be made from an infinite list; the only consideration is freshness. But you say you bought it fresh. Just because you purchased from the fresh bin at the market does not guarantee the pick date. Consider the source and how far that head of lettuce traveled.

My dad was a Master Gardener, and fresh veggies were always steps away. Here’s the inspiration for a salad I prepared today and served from my garden to plate in under 5 minutes.
