Celery and olive salad is a fresh and light European recipe that harmoniously combines crunchy vegetables, tangy olives, and tender corn. The history of such salads dates back to Mediterranean cuisine, where simple and healthy combinations are valued. Celery adds a special freshness and slight bitterness, while cucumbers and sweet peppers contribute juiciness. Olive oil enriches the flavor, while lemon juice or basil dressing highlights the natural tones of the ingredients. This salad is perfect as a side dish for main courses, an appetizer for festive tables, or a light snack on a hot day. It not only delights the taste but also provides benefits due to its high content of fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants.
