The creator of the immensely popular Salad for President blog
presents a visually rich collection of more than 75 salad recipes,
with contributions and interviews by artists/creative professionals
like William Wegman, Tauba Auerbach, Laurie Anderson, and Alice
Waters. Julia Sherman loves salad. In the book named after her
popular blog, Sherman encourages her readers to consider salad an
everyday indulgence that can include cocktails, soups, family style
brunch dishes, and dinner-party entrees. Every part of the meal is
reimagined with a fresh, vegetable obsessed perspective. This
compendium of savory recipes will tempt readers in search of
diverse offerings from light to hearty: Collard Chiffonade Salad
with Roasted Garlic Dressing and Crouton Crumble, Heirloom Tomatoes
with Crunchy Polenta Croutons, or Flank Steak and Bean Sprouts with
Miso-Kimchi Dressing. On the lighter end there are Grilled Hearts
of Palm with Mint and Triple Citrus, Persimmon Caprese, and fresh
Blood Marys. The recipes, while not exclusively vegetarian, are
vegetable-forward and focused on high-quality seasonal produce.
Sherman also includes insider tips on pantry staples and growing
your own salad garden of herbs and greens. Salad-with its infinite
possibilities-is a game of endless combinations, not stifling
rules. And with that in mind, Salad for President offers a window
into how artists approach preparing their favorite dishes. She
visits sculptors, painters, photographers, and musicians in their
homes and gardens, interviewing and photographing them as they
cook. Utterly unique in its look into the worlds of food, art, and
everyday practices, Salad for President is at once a practical
resource for healthy, satisfying recipes and an inspiring look at
creativity.
