My significant other ate cucumbers and onion with some ranch. I called it a cucumber onion salad. She says there aren’t enough ingredients to call it a salad, because “it takes multiple ingredients”. I pointed out she had three and asked what the minimum is. She refuses to answer so I ask Lemmy.
One. But it needs to be a vegetable AND have dressing AND be chopped into bite sized parts AND be raw.
If any of the previous conditions isn’t met, then you need at least two ingredients.
So, yes, cucumbers and onion with ranch most definitely is a salad.
If it’s dressed and a vegetable, is it just a really wet one?
I don’t know, is it chopped or whole?
Chicken, boiled eggs and mayonnaise is a salad.
Sure, that’s two ingredients, it checks out.
