Are you looking for a dressing for lamb’s lettuce to spice it up a bit? Whether fruity, spicy or creamy: We have three delicious recipe ideas for lamb’s lettuce salad dressings.

Especially in winter, the body is happy about fresh food. Lamb’s lettuce is particularly welcome here as it is in season during the winter months.

Fiery lamb’s lettuce with lemon and chilli dressing

A dressing with chili also warms you up from the inside and really cheers you on during the cold season. Combined with fresh lemon as a vinegar substitute, you have a vitamin boost.

For the lemon and chilli dressing (for approx. 200g lamb’s lettuce) you need the following organic ingredients:

salt and pepper
½ tsp sweet mustard
4 tablespoons high-quality salad oil (e.g. a mixed oil made from sesame, sunflower and soybean oil)
3 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
¼ – ¾ tsp chili powder, depending on how spicy you want it
some water
Whisk all the ingredients together with a whisk, then pour over the lamb’s lettuce. The sweet mustard balances the hot chilli powder and gives the lamb’s lettuce dressing a thick consistency.

Honey-mustard salad dressing for lamb’s lettuce

A honey-mustard dressing goes very well with the nutty and mild-tasting lamb’s lettuce. Mustard adds that certain something with its spiciness and the honey rounds it off with its sweetness – an ideal combination for your lamb’s lettuce dressing.

Ingredients for the lamb’s lettuce dressing (for approx. 200g lamb’s lettuce):

salt and pepper
2 tsp mustard
1 tsp honey
1 finely chopped shallot
4 tbsp salad oil
Mix all the ingredients with a whisk or a whisk. If you are using an electric mixer, add the shallot after mixing. You can round off your salad with roasted pine nuts or a salad seed mixture of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame and pine nuts.

Fruity walnut raspberry dressing

Fresh lamb’s lettuce can also be excellently combined with a fruity touch of raspberries and a good portion of omega 3 in the form of walnuts and walnut oil. The recipe uses raspberry jam, which you can certainly replace with thawed raspberries from the summer months and thus have a slightly healthier version.

For the fruity lamb’s lettuce dressing (for approx. 200g of lettuce) you will need:

salt and pepper
1 tsp mustard
2 tbsp water
3 tbsp walnut oil
1 tbsp raspberry jam, alternatively 2 tbsp frozen raspberries, defrosted
1 handful of walnut kernels
Preparation: Press the raspberry jam or the defrosted raspberries through a fine sieve with a spoon so that the small seeds do not end up in the salad dressing. Then mix all the other ingredients except for the walnuts with a whisk and pour them over the lamb’s lettuce. Garnish everything with the walnuts and your raspberry dressing is ready.

Notes on the ingredients

It is also important to pay attention to organic quality when it comes to lamb’s lettuce in order to avoid chemical-synthetic pesticides. Of course, the best thing is to simply grow lamb’s lettuce in your own garden or on the balcony: Sow lamb’s lettuce: you have to bear this in mind when sowing .

You can process pak choi into a crunchy salad. Here you get the right recipe for the wholesome variety of cabbage, which has a light mustard aroma.

Crisp, a mild spiciness reminiscent of mustard and easily digestible: These characteristics make Pak Choi an ideal basis for salads.

Pak Choi, also known as Chinese cabbage, is a cabbage vegetable that is widespread in Asian cuisine. But you can also find Pak Choi more and more often in local vegetable displays. It not only tastes great fried, steamed or blanched, but also as a pak choi salad.

Due to the high fiber content, most people often do not tolerate raw brassicas well and suffer from stomach and intestinal problems after eating them. However, since pak choi has a little less fiber and is therefore more digestible than other cabbage, you can also eat it raw.

Pak Choi Salad: A recipe with lots of vegetables

Ingredients:

250 g pak choi
1 large carrot
1cucumber
6radishes
1big apple
2spring onions
0.5 bunch of chives
1 tsp sweet mustard
4 tbsp walnut oil
3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper

Directions:

Clean and cut the pak choi into small pieces. You can find tips on how to do this under Preparing Pak Choi: How to make Chinese cabbage.
Wash the vegetables and the apple. Cut the carrot, cucumber and radishes into sticks and the apple into small pieces. Cut the spring onions and chives into fine rings. Toss the pak choi salad in a large bowl.
For the dressing, mix the mustard, walnut oil, and apple cider vinegar together. If necessary, add a little water if the dressing is too thick. Season the dressing with salt and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the pak choi salad and mix well.

Additional tips for cooking

However, similar to chard, which is often confused with pak choi, the stalks of the vegetable can sometimes be a bit firm. You should therefore cut the pak choi for salads as small as possible.
Nutty components such as sesame oil or walnut oil in the dressing go well with the light mustard aroma of the crunchy sticks.
A fruity note balances the tart taste of the green leaves. Pomegranate seeds or pieces of apple, for example, are therefore suitable as toppings.
Make sure your ingredients are organic. Seals such as Bioland, Naturland or Demeter identify products that come from environmentally friendly cultivation. Among other things, you can be sure that they are free of chemical-synthetic pesticides.
If you shop seasonally and regionally, you can also save on CO2 emissions. This is particularly important with pak choi, as it often comes from Thailand.
If you don’t like it raw, you can also add fried pak choi to the salad.

Cialledda comes from southern Italy. The salad consists of leftover bread, olive oil and fresh tomatoes. We show you how to prepare the salad.

Bread dries out quickly and becomes hard. You can prevent this, for example, by storing the bread properly. However, any braid or bun will dry out after some time, that’s all. Under no circumstances should you throw it in the trash. You can avoid such food waste and use food more sustainably.

Cialledda comes from southern Italy. The bread salad has its origins in the city of Matera in the region of Basilicata and in the adjacent region of Puglia. The dish comes from rural cuisine and is quickly prepared with inexpensive ingredients. The main component is stale bread, plus vegetables, spices and oil.

Cialledda: This is a great way to use leftover bread in a salad

Ingredients:

150 g bread
150 ml water
70 g olives
150 g cocktail tomatoes
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tspOrengano
1 bunch basil
0.5 tsp pepper
0.5 clove(s) garlic
0.5 red onion

Directions:

Cut the bread into cubes about 1 inch by 1 inch and place in a bowl.
Now pour the water over the bread and roll it in it until it becomes soft. Then you can pour off the excess water and gently wring out the bread with your hand.
Now cut the tomatoes, the onion and the garlic into small pieces.

Add all the ingredients to the bread and pour over the oil and spices as well.

Mix everything together thoroughly so that the spices are distributed. The Cialledda salad is ready.

Cialledda in different variants

Cialledda comes from the rural kitchen and is used for leftovers. You can therefore prepare the bread salad with a wide variety of vegetables and use different types of bread. More ideas for the bread salad:

Other vegetables: You can also use zucchini or mushrooms. You can add them raw or toss them in a pan with a little oil and fry them lightly.
Mozzarella: In order to have another component in the salad in addition to the broth and the vegetables, you can also add a sliced mozzarella ball.
Toasted bread: You can also toast the pieces of bread after soaking for a slightly crispy texture and toasted aromas. To do this, fry the pieces of bread in a pan for about five minutes until golden brown.

Kale Salad is a fresh alternative to traditional boiled kale. We’ll tell you how to process the healthy winter vegetables raw and which ingredients make the salad taste particularly good.

In the European winter kitchen, kale is usually cooked on the table. The traditional type of cabbage can also be eaten raw: you can use the leaves for a crisp kale salad, for example.

You can buy locally grown kale from November to February. When doing so, and also with the other ingredients, it is best to pay attention to organic quality, for example with the Naturland or Bioland seal. This is how you support ecological agriculture without chemical-synthetic pesticides.

Kale Salad: An easy recipe

For 1 to 2 servings of kale salad you need the following quotes:

about six large kale leaves
about four to five mushrooms (tip: clean mushrooms: simple step-by-step instructions)
1 onion
2 lemons
1- 2 tablespoons tahini (tip: make tahini yourself: recipe for the oriental sesame paste)
olive oil
Salt
agave syrup or maple syrup
1/2 can of cooked chickpeas
1/2 apple

And this is how you prepare the kale salad:

Remove the stalk from the kale, wash the vegetables thoroughly and chop them up.
Wash the mushrooms and cut them into slices.
Peel and dice the onion.
Briefly sweat the onion cubes together with the mushrooms in a pan until the onion cubes become translucent.
Place the kale in a bowl and pour the juice of one lemon over it. Let the kale leaves steep for about ten minutes. This will make the firm kale more tender and easier to chew later.
While the leaves are steeping, you can prepare the dressing for the kale salad. To do this, stir the tahini into the juice of the second lemon. Season the dressing with olive oil, salt and some agave syrup.
Place the chickpeas in a colander, rinse and drain.
Meanwhile, cut the apple into small pieces. Add the pieces to the bowl with the kale along with the chickpeas and dressing.
Mix everything well and let the kale salad rest for a moment before serving.

Kale salad: That’s why winter vegetables are so healthy

Kale has rightly been considered a regional superfood for years. Kale, as it is called in English, is a real vitamin bomb and is low in calories. Thanks to the healthy winter vegetables, kale salad contains, among other things:

vitamin C
Vitamin A
vitamin E
folic acid
protein

Important: Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat-soluble. So don’t skip the oil in your salad or your body won’t be able to absorb them from the kale.

In addition, kale salad is rich in important minerals. These include:

calcium
potassium
magnesium
phosphorus
iron
zinc

Kale is usually served as an accompaniment to hearty dishes. Since some ingredients are heat-sensitive, kale develops its health benefits best when eaten raw – for example in a kale salad.

The special thing about Chinese cucumber salad is the crushed cucumbers. The squeezing makes the light dish particularly crisp, refreshing and aromatic. We’ll show you a recipe for the healthy side dish.

Chinese cucumber salad is a popular side dish in Asian cuisine. Unlike the traditional cucumber salad, the cucumbers for this recipe are first squashed or smashed. Crushing creates small gaps that allow liquid to drain away. That’s why the Chinese cucumber salad will be particularly crisp later. In addition, the dressing can be better distributed in the small gaps and contributes to the aromatic, fresh taste.

When buying your ingredients, make sure they are organic. In this way you ensure that the food is free of chemical-synthetic pesticides. The organic seals from Demeter, Naturland or Bioland stand for high standards.

Cucumbers and other vegetables are usually available from regional cultivation during the season. This saves long transport routes and thus also CO2 emissions. In addition, by the way, it is very easy to grow cucumbers yourself.

Chinese cucumber salad: how to prepare it

Ingredients:

1 cucumber
1 tsp salt
2 cloves)garlic spring onion
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 teaspoon nectar
1 tsp soy sauce
0.5 tsp coriander, ground 1 red chilli (optional)

Directions:

Place the cucumber on a board and squash it until it’s split open on both sides. For example, use a rolling pin or another hard object.
Tip: You can cover the cucumber with a kitchen towel beforehand to prevent the cucumber juice from splashing around when you crush it.
Cut the mashed cucumber into small cubes, one to two centimeters in size.
Put the cucumber cubes in a fine sieve. Place a bowl underneath to drain excess liquid.
Mix the cucumber cubes with the salt and set them aside for 30 minutes.
Caution: If you skip this step, the Chinese cucumber salad will be too watery.
Meanwhile, finely chop the onions and garlic.
Mix together the sesame oil, rice vinegar, agave syrup, soy sauce and the ground coriander.
After resting, place the cucumbers in a salad bowl and mix with the dressing, onions, and garlic.
Optional: Chop the chilli very finely and garnish the Chinese cucumber salad with it.

Chinese cucumber salad goes well with these dishes

Chinese cucumber salad is a light dish. Eat it as a light lunch or as a snack between meals. If you’re having the cucumber salad as a main meal, serve it with some flatbread or fresh focaccia.

As a side dish, the Chinese cucumber salad goes particularly well with fresh vegetables. Cook the vegetables the Asian way, like in this vegetable curry with local ingredients or the Thai dish Pad See Ew. Serve cooked rice or rice noodles with salad and vegetables.

Spices and herbs such as coriander, mint, parsley and various types of chili also go well with the Chinese cucumber salad.

Special tip: For even more healthy nutrients in the recipe, you can grow sprouts and add them to the salad main course.

If you want to prepare a salad, you should follow a few guidelines. In this article we will show you which five mistakes you should better avoid.

Salads can provide a refreshing and nutritious meal within a balanced diet. Depending on the ingredients, they provide you with various vitamins and minerals, as well as fiber. There are a few things to keep in mind so that you can absorb as many nutrients as possible and prepare a delicious salad.

For a salad that is as sustainable as possible, we recommend that you first pay attention to organic quality when buying the ingredients. In this way you avoid chemical-synthetic pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. If you also buy regionally and seasonally, you avoid long transport routes and the associated CO2 emissions.

Mistake #1 in salad preparation: Washing wrong

In order to prepare a nutrient-rich salad, you should avoid washing the lettuce leaves immediately after chopping them. After chopping, the lettuce has a particularly large number of interfaces. If you wash it exactly then, it loses an unnecessarily large number of nutrients through contact with water. It is best to detach the leaves from the stalk by plucking them and wash them whole. Even then, you should only expose the lettuce leaves to the water for as long as necessary so that the lettuce loses as few nutrients as possible.

Mistake #2: Not drying lettuce

In order to prepare delicious, crunchy lettuce, you should always dry it as well as possible after washing. If you leave it wet, it can collapse faster. Drying also has the advantage that the salad dressing sticks better to the leaves and the sauce is less likely to pool with leftover water at the bottom of the bowl. You can gently dry the lettuce with a clean kitchen towel or in a salad spinner.

Cooking the salad: Mistake #3

The third mistake when preparing salad is to let too much air get into the salad. Some vitamins are particularly sensitive to oxygen in the air. It is therefore better to pluck the lettuce than cut it when chopping it up. When you cut, you break up the cell structures. On the one hand, the valuable plant sap can escape and on the other hand, the interfaces have direct contact with the air.

When you pluck, the lettuce often tears along the veins of the leaves, which is gentle on the lettuce. If you don’t want to eat the salad immediately after preparing it, store the salad in a tightly sealed container and if possible in a cool place.

Mistake #4: Wrong timing for dressing

If possible, add your salad dressing to the salad just before eating. Otherwise, the lettuce may lose some of its crispness and collapse and become mushy. This is mainly due to the salt that is usually contained in the dressings. This draws the water out of the lettuce.

Mistake #5: Too little variety in the salad cooking

From a nutritional point of view, it makes sense if you make your salad varied and diverse. This means that you should use or combine more nutrient-rich types of lettuce such as dark green and red lettuce, lamb’s lettuce, rocket or spinach.

It is best to add fresh herbs, other types of vegetables, sprouts or wild plants such as nettles, wild garlic or dandelion that you have collected yourself. This is how you add nutrients to your salad. You can also supplement your salad with protein-rich foods. Foods like tempeh, nuts, or beans will keep you full longer.

How healthy your salad actually is depends on various factors. In this article, we will show you how to make salad healthy and provide you with suitable recipe suggestions.

Salads consist largely of water and are therefore low in calories. According to the Federal Center for Nutrition, they also contain various health-promoting nutrients. These include vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin C, beta-carotene, folate and fiber as well as potassium, magnesium and phosphorus.

There are a variety of salad dishes and even more ways to arrange salads individually. Not all salads are created equal. You can influence how healthy your salad will ultimately be.

These factors affect how healthy your salad is

It’s best to add variety to your salad choices because different types of lettuce contain different amounts of nutrients. For example, according to the BzfE, iceberg lettuce is rather low in nutrients, while lamb’s lettuce and endive have a better nutrient composition. Wild herbs are particularly rich in nutrients.

When putting together, you can use seasonal and regional salad varieties as a guide. You can also save on CO2 emissions because long transport routes are no longer necessary. Our seasonal calendar can give you an overview. In addition, we recommend that you buy your salad and all other ingredients in organic quality. In this way, you avoid chemical-synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilizers.

It is healthiest and tastiest if you prepare your salad and dressing yourself. Ready-made salads lose nutrients when cut and stored. In addition, packaged salads are more susceptible to bacteria. This is due to the cut surfaces of the pre-cut lettuce, on which microorganisms can colonize more easily. Ready-made dressings often contain a lot of sugar, salt or oil and can quickly become a calorie bomb. For example, try a classic vinaigrette instead. If you have the opportunity, we recommend that you grow your own lettuce. So you get the freshest salad ever and save plastic at the same time.

If you prepare your salad yourself, you can combine it according to your taste and supplement it with filling ingredients. It is particularly healthy to add protein-rich components to the salad. This can be, for example, legumes, eggs, organic cheese, nuts and seeds or the organic (soy) yoghurt in the dressing. Complex carbohydrates also promote satiety. Add healthy carbohydrates in the form of millet, whole wheat pasta, or sweet potatoes to the salad. You can also integrate fruits, mushrooms or other vegetables. There are no limits to the design of your salad.

You can harvest sorrel on your next walk. We’ll show you what to look out for and how to prepare a delicious sorrel salad with strawberries.

How to harvest sorrel for your salad

You will find sorrel, a wild herb belonging to the knotweed family, in many meadows. Just take a closer look the next time you go out into nature. The main harvest time is from spring to July.

You can recognize sorrel by its elongated, lanceolate leaves. These grow out of the ground in a rosette shape. In the flowering period, between May and June, you can easily recognize the sorrel. During this time, long panicles with inconspicuous, reddish flowers push up to a meter high from the ground.

If the meadows are public, you can harvest some leaves for your salad. Only pick as much as you need. This allows the plants to grow back in peace. Of course, you shouldn’t harvest the main ingredient for your delicious summer salad from private property.

If the leaves of the sorrel are still very small, it is better to let them grow a little longer. You can harvest the leaves from a diameter of about ten centimeters. Sorrel has a bitter taste. You can balance this out in your vegan salad with the sweetness of the strawberries and the dressing.

By the way: The earlier in the year, the lower the risk that the leaves of the sorrel will taste too bitter or sour.

Recipe for vegan sorrel salad with strawberries

Strawberries are in peak season in early summer. Combine the sorrel harvest with a trip to the strawberry field. If possible, also pay attention to organic quality with the strawberries. In this way you support agriculture that does not use chemical-synthetic pesticides and thus protects the environment and health.

This is how you prepare a delicious summer salad from your self-harvested ingredients.

Ingredients:

200 g sorrel
50 g lettuce
400 g strawberries
1spring onion
0.5 red onions
1 tbsp sunflower seeds
1 teaspoon nectar
1 tsp mustard
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp sunflower oil
0.5 clove(s) garlic
1 pinch(s) of salt
1 pinch(s) of pepper
Some chives

Directions:

Prepare your sorrel and lettuce leaves. Wash them and then dry them.
Wash and dry the strawberries as well. Then cut them in half lengthways and put them in a bowl with the salad.
Cut the onions into small pieces and add them to the rest of the salad together with the sunflower seeds.
Now you prepare the dressing. To do this, first mix agave syrup, mustard, apple cider vinegar and sunflower oil.
Using a garlic press, press the garlic into the dressing. Alternatively, you can chop it finely.
Season the dressing with salt and pepper. When you’re satisfied, spread it over your sorrel salad.
Finally, garnish your salad with chopped chives.

Sorrel is so healthy

This refreshing and light salad is ideal for warmer days. The strawberries add a great pop of color.

The recipe is not only regional and seasonal, but also healthy. With its high vitamin C content, sorrel has health-promoting effects in store for you. It is said to help with gastrointestinal complaints, reduce fever and have a diuretic effect. Sorrel gives a sluggish digestion a boost. The bitter substances in sorrel are also very healthy.

If you still have sorrel left over from your harvest, you can use the rest to prepare a delicious sorrel soup.
