- Puffed salads (with the exception of lettuce with potato flakes) should be infused in the refrigerator before serving. Soaked, they will be tastier, juicier and more tender.
- You can vary the amount of a component, focusing on your own preferences. So you can achieve a different taste: vegetable, meat, smoked.
