| Spring Colors with Last Harvest Fruits |
Recipe adapted from Best of Sunset
Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be. As Seasonal Eating
readers know, I’m crazy about retro cookbooks. The latest addition to my
collection was published ‘way back in 1992. The
Best of Sunset is a compilation of winning recipes from Sunset magazine’s not-so-distant
past. Yet since Sunset has been serving up menu ideas since 1898, I suspect
that this fruit salad recipe was first published earlier—around 1980 or a bit
before. It’s from the years when honey-Dijon dressings suddenly appeared on
menus everywhere, but we hadn’t learned to specify which “salad oil” they were
made with. This salad is lightly dressed and even my friend Rox (not a big fan
of mustard) rated it thumbs up.
