Instructions
-
11. Hearts of Palm Prep: Remove the hearts of palm from the jar, rinse lightly with cold water to remove excess brine, and drain thoroughly. Slice them into uniform rounds.
-
22. Making the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, lemon juice, and mustard until you achieve a smooth, consistent pink color.
-
33. Seasoning: Stir in the pinch of paprika, salt, and white pepper to taste. Sample the sauce and adjust the acidity with more lemon juice if needed.
-
44. Integration: Gently fold the hearts of palm slices into the sauce. Mix with soft movements to ensure the slices remain intact.
-
55. Chilling: Refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes before serving; this allows the flavors to meld and the consistency to firm up.
-
66. Serving: Serve in a bowl or over a bed of fresh lettuce leaves. Garnish with a sprinkle of finely chopped parsley or an extra pinch of paprika for a professional finish.
