Nutritional values

Elderberry juice has its colour from the secondary plant substance anthocyanin, which as an antioxidant protects the cell membranes from damage and thus slows down the ageing process - here strongly supported by vitamin E, which is so abundant that it almost covers the daily requirement.

This salad has fat saving potential! If you like: Reduce the oil for the vinaigrette to 3 tablespoons (plus 2 tablespoons of stock or water) and use only half the hazelnuts and half the Parmesan.
