Personal Notes:
Mama loved broccoli salad in any form but this was her favorite salad recipe.
Editor's Note: Mother talked about learning to cook in Chicago with her six sisters, three of whom are pictured above. Growing up in the South, the crispy veggies were a bit strange to us, as we had part-time cooks who kept things on the stove a bit too long. Now I appreciate that the Illinois way was much healthier, and this raw broccoli salad was crispy for sure!
