Salad days - Marcel Desaulniers

All of us are looking for tasty new ways to dine healthily. This enticing selection of main-dish salads from one of the most innovative chefs of our time is just what our tastebuds ordered.
In the same way that he turned chocolate on its head in DEATH BY CHOCOLATE, Desaulniers expands our ideas of what salads should be: not salad-bar fare but full meals melding the flavours of such savories as grilled aubergine, scallions, and plum tomatoes with leaf spinach, herbed couscous, and roasted garlic dressing. In SALAD DAYS, he brings his customary originality, wit and zest to an all-star parade of leafy greens, luscious fruits, satisfying pasta combinations, and succulent variations of meat, fish and fowl. Each awe-inspiring dish is topped off with the perfect dressing to bring out every nuance of flavour.
Whether you need an impressive dish for special guests of simply a delicious indulgence for one, SALAD DAYS provides the inspiration and instruction for a first-class meal.
