“From morning till night, sounds drift from the kitchen, most of them familiar and comforting....On days when warmth is the most important need of the human heart, the kitchen is the place you can find it; it dries the wet sock, it cools the hot little brain.”
E.B.White (1899-1985)
Although there have been main course salads for many years, the Cobb salad and the Ceasar salad were the first commonly served and widely known main course salads, both in restaurants and for home entertaining. Up until that time (the 1920s and 1930s) salads were more commonly served as side dishes composed of greens with a simple dressing of salt and vinegar and oil.
