Tante Kerni's (Hot!) Home Story

Now, friends, usually we don't do anything that involves HEAT, because the office kitchen, that we prepare our salads in, does not have a stove. And the lunch break is too short for lengthy preparation.

But potatoes ... ah, they just don't taste any good if you buy them pre-boiled. So as a concession to THE archetype of German "vegetable"/salad, some playing around with potatoes was long overdue.

Easy, quick, naturally. We are at home, but we are still lazy.

Potatoes, beetroot - cut into chunks and boil them together. Throw in the eggs at half-time.
While boiling, chop onion and add it to some oil and lemon juice. Salt. Chop some pickled gurken (cornichons).

Add egg, potatoes and beetroot once boiled.

Chop avocado and some smoked tofu. Top with some toasted sesame oil and seeds.

Some mayonnaise or yoghurt is nice for those who don't avoid it.

Salad #50 with Creamy Mustard Dressing

Salad friends! This is number 50! And yet ever so simple.

Some radicchio
Some corn lettuce
Some radishes ...

And a dressing made of: shallot, cream, some senfgurkenwasser but never mind if you don't have any, sugar, lemon juice, salt, mayonnaise, whole seed mustard (lots), some fresh dill - capers for those who don't hate them

Not unlike with Mustard Eggs (Senfeier :) the point here is not to be healthy, but to drown the stuff in sauce/dressing. You can basically have it with anything.
