About this Event
Join us for morning tea, a chat and a book signing with Alice Zaslavsky as she comes to Ballarat to celebrate the launch of her latest book 'Salad for Days'.
Please pop in anytime during the allocated hour - Alice will be there for the whole time!
Alice has written four award-winning cookbooks: Alice’s Food A-Z to help kids get curious about food, In Praise of Veg to help households fall in love with vegetables and Better Cooking to help build cooking confidence. Cookbook number 4 – Salad for Days helps give every cook the tools to make friends with salad.
From October 2024, Alice will be hosting a new nightly cooking show on ABC called A Bite To Eat with Alice. Each episode will feature Alice and a special guest who will inspire viewers of all abilities to get into the kitchen and use what they’ve got, no matter their skill level.
About Salad for Days
Salad for Days is both a seasonal reference guide and a daily roster to boost your repertoire, packed with inspiration. There’s 80 different dressings, one for each of the salads. Not sure what salad dressing mood you’re in? I’ve got you, with choose-your-salad-mood options. Spicy and funky, zippy and zesty, rich and creamy, bright and light AND bonus crunchy bits to match your salad mood.
But wait, there’s more! One you’ve picked your mood, what’s the weather like? This book has your decision making covered with the Warmer Days and Cooler Days sections.
Feeling like something refreshing and cooling on a warmer day? Try the Relaxed Chopped Salad, or the Gado Gado Platter with pantry satay sauce.
For warming and grounding on cooler days, try the Calamari and Shell Pasta Salad, classics like a Frisée or Carrot & Wild Rice Salad with Marmalade Dressing. That marmalade dressing is going to rock your world!
This is a pesco book but there’s always substitutions. Check the index in the back of the book once you know what you have in the fridge to use up and you’ll be riffing your way to a delicious salad in no time.
