Chop and toss. That’s about it! Then, you’re ready to serve this gourmet salad that’s refreshingly different.
I have one cousin in Israel that always has gourmet stuff on her table. Well, she’s a professional baker so we’d expect as much. I never really aspired to make anything that she makes because they all look too complicated.
But…then one Shabbos she prepared this salad and I asked her how she made it. And I was so shocked at how simple it was!
Mushroom Chestnut Salad
Ingredients
- 11-12 oz fresh mushrooms (I used a combination of baby bella and shiitake)
- 1 (3.5 - 5 oz) package roasted chestnuts
- 10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 2 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Slice and chop the mushrooms, chestnuts and basil.
- In a bowl, combine the above with mayonnaise, and salt. Mix and Enjoy!
We loved this salad! So different!!! Would put less mayo next time and would try adding water chesnuts for even more texture/crunch.
Woah!! I like different raw material salad ideas and like to have a try with new recipe ideas. Being a freelance writer I write on different topics from academic to history topics, you could visit my recent writings at https://assignmentbro.com/us/do-my-assignments for getting prepared assignment on different topics and requirements. By the way, your recipe ideas inspire me writing something on recipe!! Thanks again.
Thanks for this information.
How much in advance can this be made? Or is it best made fresh? Thanks
