Pulling together a beautifully fresh salad takes very little effort during the heat of Summer, and seems the perfect choice for your own health as well as a heat-affected appetite searching for something lighter. A good salad is made great by the vinaigrette its dressed in I think. When it comes to making the perfect vinaigrette, it is worth measuring the ingredients carefully until the balance of flavour becomes second nature. And always leave the dressing of any salad until the very last moment before you serve to ensure the leaves you have chosen stay beautifully crisp. - Maggie
