Gemischter Salat – Salade Mêlée

Served in restaurants as a starter, main or side, this is one of Switzerland’s favorite salads. It’s not one big mixed salad, but rather individual little salads arranged in colorful mounds on the plate–typically beets, carrots, celery root, corn, cucumber, and tomato (though numerous variations exist). The easiest way to make the salad is to make two base dressings and adjust them to the veggies as necessary.
