This is the original Waldorf Salad recipe which I clipped out of the newspaper several years ago. My mother made this salad often-it must have been a favorite of hers also. Newer versions have left out some of the ingredients which add variety in texture and taste. It's a classic American salad which was developed by the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. Ingredients:
2 cups diced unpared apples |
1 cup diced celery |
1 cup sliced red grapes |
1 banana, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced |
1 cup miniature marshmallow |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 tablespoons cream or 2 tablespoons half-and-half |
Directions:
1. Combine first six ingredients; sprinkle lemon juice on top.
2. Combine gently-best to use your hands to mix.
3. Mix mayonnaise with sugar and cream and stir until sugar is dissolved.
4. Dress the salad with this.
5. Chill before serving.
6. Can be prepared several hours ahead of time if necessary.
