  • How do you make Lady's Whim salad?
    1. Hard-boil the eggs. Drain and cover with cold water to cool, then peel and grate on the coarse side of a box grater. 2. Rinse the chicken breast thoroughly under cold running water and pat it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper to taste, pressing the seasoning into the meat with your palm. Heat a little vegetable oil in a hot skillet and add the chicken breast as a whole piece. Sear it evenly on all sides over medium heat until golden and appetizing. Check for doneness by cutting into it. Sprinkle the chicken with garlic powder or any other spices you like. Transfer the seared chicken to a plate and let it cool, then cut it into small pieces. 3. Rinse the mushrooms well under running water and drain them in a colander. Cut them into small dice. In the same skillet (with the leftover oil), sauté the mushrooms until golden. Salt them to taste. 4. Wash, dry, and finely chop the cucumbers. 5. Pour boiling water over the prunes, then drain and finely chop them. 6. Grind the walnuts in a blender or crush them with a rolling pin. 7. Grate the cheese. 8. Assemble the salad in a suitable dish. Since it's layered, use a serving ring or a deep dish with high sides. Spread mayonnaise over each layer (you may use a little more or less). First layer: half the chicken. Then the chopped cucumber. Third layer: the grated eggs. Fourth layer: the sautéed mushrooms. Then the second half of the chicken. Then sprinkle with prunes and walnuts. Final layer: grated cheese. Before serving, chill the salad in the fridge for a couple of hours (or a bit more) so it soaks through. Garnish the finished salad with roses made from fresh tomato, fresh parsley, kiwi slices, and pomegranate seeds. Enjoy!
  • Homemade mayonnaise is worth the effort — tastier and more wholesome. You can also use sour cream or plain yogurt instead, on their own or mixed in to your taste, which lightens the dish.
  • All oils are only good up to a certain point — the smoke point, where the oil starts to burn and forms harmful compounds, including carcinogens. It's worth learning how to pick the right oil for frying and gauge the right temperature.
