Notes
Use fresh ingredients: Look for ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and quality meats and cheeses. This will make a world of difference as each ingredient is a standout flavor.
Layer ingredients for long-term: If the salad needs to keep for a while - layer the ingredients in the salad bowl rather than tossing them all together. This prevents the salad from becoming soggy.
Let flavors meld: Allow the salad to sit for a few minutes after adding the dressing to let the flavors meld together.
Serve at the right temperature: Serve the antipasto salad chilled or at room temperature, depending on how you like it. Some ingredients, like grilled vegetables or meats, are best when served slightly warm.
