🥗These are the things I needed to make really good salads at home:
- a really big salad bowl for optimum tossing (I got mine from IKEA)
- salad tossers (or just use tongs, but make sure you get it all tossed for optimum salad)
- really good extra virgin olive oil (I almost never buy pre made dressing as this is the basis for all the dressings I like)
This is what I put in: - leaves - crunch - flavoursome/textural difference - dressing - acid - weight
Some examples: - leaves: spinach, rocket, watercress - crunch: thinly sliced radishes and celery, roasted chickpeas, roasted tenderstem brocolli, charred corn, apple - flavoursome/textural variation: chunks of goats cheese, shavings of parmesan, avocado, olives, mint, basil - dressing: olive oil, garlic salt, black pepper, chilli flakes, wholegrain mustard, balsamic vinegar glaze, hummus - acid: a squeeze of lemon, orange zest - weight: puy lentils, couscous, pasta, croutons
If you get a good amount of textural and flavour variation you're in for a good time. Just try out different combinations til you find what works for you! I also like to chop the leaves a little bit to get a nice balanced forkful of bits and leaves

🎸Poet & songwriter best known as the frontman of “Silver Jews,“ and the lesser known “Purple Mountains,“ Berman has a way of exploring the beauty in the darker aspects of life. Berman tragically took his in 2019. He had such a special way with words both as a poet and a songwriter. My favorite song of his, “Famous Eyes” is linked above.

🎸Founded in 1995, Broadcast was an English band that drew influences from 60s psychedelia, electronic, and experimental music. Following the death of their lead singer in 2011, Broadcast has found a new life and a cult following due to the mystery surrounding the band. I’ve linked my favorite album, Tender Buttons above.

🎸Due to the involvement of the US Military Sponsoring SXSW, many bands and artists have opted to pull out of SXSW as protest for the ongoing genocide and Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine. I’m very proud of my friends from Perfectly Imperfect and Baby’s All Right for dropping out of SXSW, and for standing in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Free Palestine 🍉
