Part 5/7:
It's essential for the salad to sit overnight in the refrigerator. This allows the ingredients to meld and develop their flavors fully. The delis always prepare their salads the night before, ensuring fresh and vibrant offerings when the doors open.
The Next Day: Remix and Serve
Once your salad has rested and the flavors have blended, you might find it slightly dry. This is normal as the yogurt and mayo will soak up excess moisture. Remix the salad with an additional spoonful of yogurt or mayo to achieve the desired consistency.
Serve this delightful melody of flavors as a sandwich on your choice of bread or as a wrap—using bib lettuce adds a delightful crunch.
