Curried Waldorf Salad Food

Try this version this year instead of the traditional Thanksgiving salad. The original Waldorf salad combined celery, apples, and mayonnaise. Gradually walnuts and raisins were added to the mix. This version is not made with the gloppy mayonnaise we associate with Waldorf salad, but it has the same sweet, savory and crunchy mixture of celery, apples, raisins, and walnuts. Slice the apples and celery thin for a more elegant salad.

"Millions who never visited the Waldorf owe him a debt," The New York Times wrote in 1950, upon Oscar Tschirky's death. Mr. Tschirky, a Swiss immigrant who became known as "Oscar of the Waldorf," is credited with creating this piece of Americana in 1893, a timeless dish whose popularity has spread far past the Waldorf's exclusive doors and into home kitchens. Over time, variations would include blue cheese, raisins and chopped walnuts, which can be added here alongside the celery and apples. But the original is an exercise in simplicity: four ingredients that have lived on for over a century.

This salad adds a wonderfully crunchy texture to any menu. My version eliminates the mayonnaise, and thus the cholesterol, and contains no dairy. Points 3.

Chicken salad is one of the most versatile sandwich fillings. You can go bold by adding in hot sauce and celery with carrots, you can go sweet with grapes and oranges, or even go exotic with curry. The one factor is generally mayonnaise, and while creamy and delicious, it packs excess fat and calories. My Waldorf chicken salad lightens up with Greek yogurt. Savory Spice Shop® Park Hill maple pepper is a match made in heaven with this recipe.
