Mama always said jou
should eat your greens. In my
family there was no strange!
manifestation o f this idea
than Grandma’s Green Salad;
Grandma’s salad was one
of those things that always-'
warmed my heart. Because I
was raised eating it, I don’t
really see it as strange. Toz
everyone I have ever roped
into my Thanksgiving, it
is met with looks of dis
trust and less than savory
explanations of why may-,,
onnaise, cottage cheese and
lime Jell-O have no business ,
being mixed together. Once
complaints are done, the
brave of heart always find
that it has a delicate flavor
that is accented by the curds
of cheese and crunch of fresh
cabbage.
This is a food fossil bom
from the creative kitchens o f
the early 20th century and
their nearly fetish-like rela
tionship with gelatin that has
been thriving since Victorian
times. It was bom in a time
when Aspic was still a
food people would eat and
where suspending any fruit
in Jell-0 could be a fancy .
accent to a dinner party
Grandma’s Green Salad is -
excellent when served with
lamb, salmon and most
chowder. Its creamy fruit
flavor goes with almost any-,
thing. At your next potluck
or dinner party, take a step
