[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curried chicken salad was really popular in the early 1980s. By curried, I'm not talking about authentic curry - it's the curry powder you get in the spice section at the grocery store. I got it as a rare treat, but never managed to successfully replicate  at home. It always tasted way too punchy when I made it at home. It contained the usual suspects - chopped celery, green onions, plus raisins, maybe apples. Really yummy.

I enjoy a nice traditional chicken sandwich but it's hard to get a good commercially prepared version. You have to make it at home to have it turn out really good, and you can include the ingredients you enjoy - grapes, raisins, apple, etc.

The old Watergate restaurant had a chicken salad with a fancy name but I can't remember it.  It was a mound of traditional chicken salad on a bed of lettuce and with four spears of perfectly cooked and peeled asparagus sort of dividing it into sections.  One summer I temped at a law firm and the partners always ordered it for their lunches   A few partners would skip the lunch and we would make a mad dash for the two or three leftover salads.  Now that I am a law firm partner, I eat a cup of yogurt and yearn for the thrill of partner luncheon days of yore.  [/quote]
