A quick toss on arrival will keep everything looking fresh and as though it was made moments before. It will save the dish from wilting and it will eliminate the pool of sauce that clings to the bottom once it has been out too long. When taking items like salads, or other dishes with an added sauce, try to keep them separated until you arrive. The ultimate no-cook dish is a salad, but even a salad can start to look a little sad if it has sat too long in its dressing. Just because a dish doesn’t need to be put back on the heat doesn’t mean it can get from point A to B without a little bit of attention to detail. Once the flavors are chosen, think through the transportation.
