The word “salad” comes from ancient times when the Romans and Greeks first adopted the culinary process of mixing green, leafy vegetables with other ingredients and covering it with dressing. “Salad” originates from the Latin word “sal,” which means “salt.” From that base, “salata,” meaning “salted things,” became the name. Over the centuries, the salad has acquired many different names, but they all mean the same thing - a collection of ingredients, usually served raw or with little cooking, offered with a flavored dressing of some sort. 


There are many definitions around the world for what can be considered a salad or how a salad is used as part of a meal. Conventional thought is that a salad is made with an assortment of ingredients tossed together or layered, served wet or dry, warm, chilled or at room temperature. For this most part, this description does define a salad, but in today’s health-conscious world, the meaning of “salad” has broadened. Ingredients are more varied and better geared toward nutrition; recipes have become more inclusive of new ingredients and the salad is often considered a meal by itself. The salad is no longer just a prelude to a meal.
