Curried Waldorf Salad Recipes

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.

A fruit salad has to be pretty darn good to actually get a name, and the venerable Waldorf salad is certainly worthy. Embellish this as you see fit, but I really like it best with just the four ingredients seen here. Things like dried cranberries can add a nice seasonal touch but, for me, the chewy fruit gets in the way of that addictive crunchy/crisp texture.

"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.
