Part 3/6:
Gather the Ingredients
Assembling the salad, Chef Guzela introduces the vegetables that will accompany the chicken.
1 small grated carrot (or half a large carrot)
½ can of corn
Diced apple (soaked in water with lemon juice to prevent browning)
80g of raisins (predominantly black for visual contrast)
1 tablespoon of chopped chives
Each ingredient is added one by one into the bowl without mixing until all components are included, building the texture and flavors expected in a traditional salpicão.
Crafting the Creamy Dressing
The critical element of any salpicão is the creamy dressing that binds the salad together. Chef Guzela conveys how to create this mix using:
- 120g of mayonnaise (about half a small jar)
