The recipes feature a number of archaic, traditional and staple dishes - and a whole lot of funky new stuff as well.Divided into fourteen chapters (Herbs and Leaves; Vegetables; Beans; Roots; Grains and Pasta; Rice; Cheese; Fish; Meat; Dips; Fruity Salads; Salads for Pudding; The Dressing Room; The Prop Cupboard), no stone is left unturned in pursuit of the ultimate salad recipe. Recipes are flagged where relevant with tags such as ''super-healthy'' or ''skinny-minny'' or ''main course'' to make it more user-friendly.
