Traditional Waldorf Salad Recipe
With A Little Twist
The Waldorf Salad Recipe was originally from the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. And the
original version did not have walnuts. My recipe does
because that's the way my customers prefer it.
How do I know? Because for over two decades my
small town American-style family restaurant has
"tested" thousands of recipes with customers (guests).
I kept only the recipes that overwhelmingly won their
approval. ALL the recipes have been "tested" and
approved by restaurant customers.
