Salad Surprise in Pork-Happy Germany

Sandra Keros

When I was coming to Germany I thought I wouldn't see a vegetable for miles. Pork, pork and more pork. Imagine my surprise when I had one of the best and freshest salads of my life in Munich.

I was always taught that anything made in small batches always tasted better; in Europe growing food this way is the norm. On the plane ride into Munich, I noticed lots of small farms very close to the city limits. I was told that in Europe there simply isn't space for factory agriculture.

Whether you GIY (grow it yourself) or have access to a CSA or farmers' market, make a great big salad with the freshest greens you can get topped with the best-quality (cold pressed is best) extra-virgin olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. The difference in taste is amazing and it will help satisfy you whether you want it before a meal, as a meal or as a healthy "snack" before a party.
