– 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

– 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

Instructions

1-Getting started with Maurice Salad: First, mix up the dressing by combining the white vinegar, lemon juice, finely minced onion or onion juice, Dijon mustard, sugar, and dry mustard in a bowl until the sugar dissolves fully. This base gives the dressing its classic tangy kick.

2-Next: add in the mayonnaise, chopped fresh parsley, diced hard-cooked egg, and salt to taste, then stir everything together until it’s smooth and creamy. In a large bowl, toss the ham strips, turkey breast strips, Swiss cheese strips, and slivered sweet gherkin with this dressing to coat them evenly. For a helpful tip, remember that using onion juice can make the flavor more authentic, so check your options before you begin. Quick Salad Recipes on our site can guide you if you’re new to this.

3-Divide the shredded lettuce among plates to form a fresh base, then top it with the dressed mixture. Finally, garnish each serving with the pimento-stuffed olives for a pop of color and taste. Serve right away to keep that crisp texture, and feel free to adapt for dietary needs as you go along.
