The great American Salads

>>9006727
My thoughts is that I want some right now.

>>9006727
>Macaroni Salad
Made using macaroni (Italian) and mayonnaise (French)
>Tuna Salad
Tuna (Pacific and mediterranean) and mayo (french)
>Potato Salad
Potatoes (Mesomerican), eggs (pacific/Asian), mayo (French)
>Egg Salad
>Chicken Salad
C'mon man.

The only real American salads are Caesar and Waldorf.

>Thoughts on these salads?
Calories - oodles and oodles of calories.

Mayo isn't French, anon.
You should research before posting.

>>9006741
Yes, because the word 'mayonnaise' is so clearly Korean in etiology.

I'm so very fucking tired of contrarian maggots like you that infest this open sore of a site.

>>9006750
Mayonnaise was invented by a British admiral stationed off Port Mahon during the peninsular war blockade.
You should research before posting, retard.

why is coleslaw called coleslaw instead of "cabbage salad" since it's just like all these other "salads"

>>9006757
Place of origin France, Spain

>>9006757
>Port Mahon during the peninsular war blockade

Glad that's cleared up! I thought for a second there you were spouting unfounded bullshit that was unsupported by known historical evidence.

>America is notable for utilizing the Spanish/French dressing in it's cuisine
It's not a dressing. It's disgusting to use mayonnaise in a salad.

How ignorant could you be? Mayonnaise is delicious

These salads do the opposite of what a salad should do. That makes them American. American is king of the fat.

>>9007051
What exactly are the salads doing?

>>9007051
This is true. I've been screwing around with pasta salads without mayo and have had decent results with just balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It's not amazing, but with some fresh cooked chicken and some chili is nice.

Since America is a mishmash of cultures, wouldn't these mayonnaise based salads that mix things from many places be very American?

>>9007122
Thats either bait or some nonsense. U wot?

>>9007127
Sorry, English is my first language. Since America is a cultural mixing pot, a salad that mixes various cultures would be American.

>>9007135
That's not how logic works.

>>9007092
You can substitute greek yogurt for the mayonaisse and get quite close to the original without as much fat.

Happy you guys enjoy it on your "salads".

Being healthy and less fat than an average 'Murican fast-food meal.

>>9007092
Pasta (bow-tie like, idk the name), smoked salmon, cooked salmon, melon cubes, reduced orange juice, some lemon juice, some balsamic vinegar, as much olive oil as you wish, dill, mint, red pepper (or red bay, red berries, idk how they're called. The kind that's like black pepper but red and goes well with fish.)
Taste better after a day in the fridge

>>9006759
bc it's dutch.

>>9007528
Too late.
It's over, Elizabeth.

>mayo on salad
Overly caloric garbage. Try making a vinaigrette for once

Macaroni salad is my #1 favorite food.

I add celery, radishes, black olives, fresh parsley, carrots, green onion, white onion, canned tiny shrimp, and cheddar cubes.

>>9006727
I love pasta salad

>>9007233
>>9008010
First I think that's a fine idea.
Second, god damn that sounds tasty and I'll save it, thanks.

I drain the hell out of my macaroni or tuna. I don't wany any liquid diluting the mayo, or making it runny.

But I like a watery colelsaw. Coleslaw should be light and refreshing.
