A truly positive dining experience is like a good book. Your time at a restaurant is divided into three courses consisting of an appetizer main course and dessert just as novels have a beginning middle and end. And no reader is going to get anywhere near the heart of the plot or a cracking ending if there isn’t a great introduction to draw them in first. In foodie terms this emphasizes the importance of a good starter meal to set the right tone for the rest of a customer’s stay. And what better way for a restaurant to make a positive first impression than to get the most common appetizer right on the spot? By using one simple step many establishments have done just that and given customers an elevated salad experience.

6 Simple Steps to Take Your Salads to the Next Level This Summer

There’s just something extra refreshing about the way mixed greens taste in restaurants whether you realize it or not. Realizing that even the smallest details make a difference in how food is received by eateries they’ve harnessed the power of serving salad in a chilled bowl or plate. This seemingly insignificant choice absolutely transforms the classic dish and makes customers want to stay longer. By using the same trick you can effortlessly take your salad up a notch right at home.

There are little nuances and caveats to how to make any dish exponentially better from the secret behind fancy restaurant soups and sauces that is a little butter to that one simple substitution for ridiculously good guacamole. But the trick to a successful salad is even easier when all you have to do is pop a bowl or plate in the fridge for about 15 minutes before using it. You can even pop it in the freezer to save some time when you’re in a hurry. Just be careful not to over-frozen your dish or your ingredients might get soggy.

To take it a step further you can take it a step further by chilling your utensils as well. By placing the fork you’re about to use in the fridge next to your plate or bowl you’ll literally get a fresh bite every time. It’s an extra effortless way to maximize the hearty texture and temperature of your food without having to change anything about the salad itself.
