Sage, rosemary, thyme - herbs say "flavorful" in a way that no other ingredient can. But making the best use of in-season herbs can be a challenge for cooks who revel in using them in a wide range of dishes, from everyday to elegant. In Herbal Salads, Ruth Bass presents recipes that combine the refreshing wholesomeness of salad with the sensual delights of herbs. Healthful, flavorful, and fragrant herbs can transform virtually any salad into a gourmet delight. The more than 30 recipes offered here feature a captivating array of ideas, from simply adding fresh herbs to tossed salads to mixing delightful dressings using homemade herbal vinegars. Herbal Salads helps any cook create appealing salads with rich and varied flavors, colors, and textures - all with the simple yet elegant addition of fresh herbs.
