Waldorf Salad

Crunch, chomp, nom, nom

November 02, 2025

Next attempt at following a recipe from my great-grandmother's cookbook.

The recipe for Waldorf Salad is as follows:

To begin, I gathered the salad ingredients.

I also added a splash of lemon juice to help keep the apples from browning, and then mixed all thoroughly.

Next, I gathered the dressing ingredients.

The beaten egg and vinegar were combined and cooked in a pan over the stove, until the mixture was thick. After cooling, the whipping cream was added.

The dressing was then poured over the salad ingredients, and stirred until coated.

Post-cook notes:

I might consider a yogurt based dressing in the future, as well as the possible inclusion of grapes.
