This is one of my family's favorite salads.Use well-chilled pears and vegetables. For 4 servings. Recipe by Cookie shiasu

An awesome, simple side dish. Great for potlucks.

Here’s a little bit of trivia for you: this dish has been around for much longer than you might think. It first appeared in the 19th century and was created by Oscar Tschirky, maître d'hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria hotel, as a specialty dish for its opening. It quickly became popular among the jet set of New York. Our recipe is served alongside a yogurt dressing made with EVOO from Spain!

The original version was introduced on March 14, 1896. It was created at The Waldorf-Astoria hotel for a charity ball given in honor of the St. Mary's Hospital for Children. The original recipe was just apples, celery, and mayonnaise. Over the years it has evolved into many different ways to prepare and to eat. Here is my version.

A lovely recipe

Delicious salad :chef

I love carrot salad. So, I mixed in some ingredients that I thought would go well with it.I used green apples in this recipe. Apples from England are only about the size of your palm, but if you use Japanese apples, use 1/3-1/2. Recipe by KT121
