Crunchy Veggie salad with a thousand island dressing

A salad is one such dish which consists of small pieces of food mixed with a sauce. It may contain virtually any type of ready to eat food. What I like about salads is that we can be so creative with the ingredients which is based around a wide variety of foods like vegetables, fruits, cooked meat, eggs, nuts and leafy greens. Garden salads use a base of leafy greens like lettuce, arugula, kale or spinach; they are common enough that the word salad alone often refers specifically to garden salads.  Other types include Mexican bean salad, tuna salad, Lebanese fattoush, Greek salad, Thai Raw Papaya Salad and Japanese somen salad (a noodle-based salad). The sauce used to flavor a salad is commonly called a salad dressing; well-known types include Ranch, Thousand Island, Caesar and French vinaigrette. Salads can be served at any point during a meal such as an appetiser or side dish or as a main course.  Food historians tell us salads (generally defined as mixed green...

Triple Chocolate mousse

They say that no matter how old you grow, being with your siblings instantly takes you back to childhood. For me, growing up with my younger brother was one of the greatest adventures of my life. We laughed at the silliest things, fought endlessly over the TV remote, teamed up in countless rounds of Contra and Mario, rewatched our favorite movies until we knew every line, and savored delicious meals on our trips to the Gulf. He was, in fact, my very first “Foodie Buddy.” Though the years have passed and life has carried us to different continents, food remains our bond. Even today, amidst the hustle and bustle, our conversations often circle back to what we loved eating as kids and what delights us now. Back then, birthdays were simple—no grand cakes or parties, and we never felt the need. But today, we embrace every occasion with joy, no matter the distance. Whether near or far, we celebrate each other’s milestones with heartfelt gestures. When my brother celebrated his milestone birt...
