Waldorf Salad

  • Difficulty: Ultra Basic
  • 20 minutes
  • One serving

This is not Tschirky’s original Waldorf salad. Instead, we played a little with the ‘classical’ recipe. We kept the walnuts, apples, and celery, but we substituted grapes with pineapple and tossed cognac-soaked dried fruits into the mix. No mayonnaise! And no bed of lettuce or other leafy greens, this time. Try it. It’s good!

Ingredients Needed for Waldorf Salad

    3 tablespoons dried fruit mix
    1-ounce cognac
