The orange and mint dressing for this Waldorf salad makes it a bit different from the usual. It's a nice twist, don't you think?
To make the most of the walnut flavors, be sure to toast them for just a minute. It's easy to do - just put them in a dry skillet on medium heat and toss them around a bit until they get hot and you can smell them.
