Recipe, History & Origin of the Waldorf Salad
A Waldorf salad is a fruit and nut salad generally made of fresh celery, apples, walnuts, and grapes, dressed in mayonnaise, and traditionally served on a bed of lettuce as an appetizer or a light meal.[1] The apples, celery, and grapes can all be green, which harmonizes the color palette of the dish. | History Waldorf salad is named for the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City, where it was first created for a charity ball given in honor of the St. Mary’s Hospital for Children on March 14, 1896.[2][3][4] The Waldorf-Astoria’s maître d’hôtel, Oscar Tschirky, | The Waldorf–Astoria originated as two hotels, built side-by-side by feuding relatives on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. Built in 1893 and expanded in 1897, the Waldorf–Astoria was razed in 1929 to make way for construction of the Empire State Building. Its successor, the current Waldorf Astoria New York, was built on Park Avenue in 1931. | A modern Waldorf salad with green grapes and whole walnuts, served in a glass bowl (2008) |
