Greek term

σαλάτα κηπουρού

Greek to English Other Food & Drink
Πρόκειται για "αλοιφή" όπως η τυροσαλάτα και όχι για σαλάτα με την κλασική έννοια του όρου, π.χ. http://lopis-place.blogspot.com/2009/01/blog-post_5574.html
Any help? Ευχαριστώ!

And the gardener's salad is worth a trip - composed of arugula, chicory and other greens for nesting marinated mushrooms, lumps of eggplant caviar, thin curls of deep-fried artichoke hearts, leeks and zucchini.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Philip Lees : This is a correct translation of the name. However, what is actually sold under the name σαλάτα κηπουρού is quite different.

Maybe you are right... That is why my level of confidence is so low...
agree d_vachliot (X) : Κυριολεκτική μετάφραση είναι η μόνη ορθή λύση, από τη στιγμή που η συνταγή δεν είναι τυποποιημένη.

Ευχαριστώ και καλή σου μέρα...
agree Efi Maryeli (X) : Θα προτιμούσα την κυριολεκτική μετάφραση. Συνήθως η σαλάτα του κηπουρού είναι κάτι σαν τη σαλάτα του σεφ. Περιέχει ότι λαχανικό έχει απομείνει στο συρτάρι του ψυγείου με σάλτσα από μαγιονέζα και κέτσαπ

Ευχαριστώ, Εφη. Καλό απόγευμα.
disagree olgaproz (X) : This would mean a salad belonging to the gardener, not sure you mean it that way.

coleslaw

Not exactly, but what my local supermarket sells under the name σαλάτα κηπουρού is closer to that than anything else. It consists of chopped carrot and other vegetables (maybe cabbage, and/or celery root) in a kind of mayonnaise.
Peer comment(s):

agree d_vachliot (X) : Το βασικό συστατικό του coleslaw που είναι το λάχανο, απουσιάζει από αυτή τη συνταγή. Συν τοις άλλοις, coleslaw είναι κάτι πολύ συγκεκριμένο και καλό θα ήταν να μην τα μπλέκαμε.

disagree Efi Maryeli (X) : Coleslaw is a salad with cabbage, carrot, apples and a certain kind of mayo. It has nothing to do with what we call the "gardener's salad" whose sauce is pink (something like the chef's sauce) and not just mayo.

I've never seen the pink version. Maybe it varies by region. What I have in my fridge has a white sauce, probably mayo and yoghurt. The only colour is the grated carrot.
agree Rachel Fell : near enough "coleslaw" anyway; made pink by the optional addition of ketchup - http://masa-masa.pblogs.gr/2008/06/salata-khpoyroy.html - though have just found this pic. on another site and lebelled "gardener's salad" - doesn't mean it's approp. th

gardener's dip/ gardener's spread

Because it really is a dip/spread and not a "salad" in the traditional sense, I would think this would be an accurate translation.
