    i think you could do all the cooking and chopping up on the 23rd and store all the prepared bits and pieces separately. I think putting everything together sooner does make things "lose their crunch" a bit sooner but I think that is because you put wetish ingredients with crunchy. so if you want crunch keep them apart as long as possible.

    I think you can get away with longer for things like potato salad or even coleslaw but any salad that needs crunch or freshness needs to be done as late as possible.

    BTW - how do you do a kumara and beetroot salad? Sounds yum!

    Thanks. We are going away on the 24th so I wanted to prepare them before we travelled.

    MD, I have added it to an appropriate thread: https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...ecipes-173530/
