It is difficult for us to imagine a festive table without salads, but the imagination is often limited to traditional Olivier, mimosa or herring under a fur coat. No one says that it is not tasty, but maybe it's time to diversify the menu of festive salads?
Ведь их можно приготовить из самых невообразимых (как сперва кажется), но тем не менее изысканных и восхитительных сочетаний продуктов: мяса и фруктов, рыбы, морепродуктов и овощей, грибов, сыра, зелени и творога – сытные и легкие, пикантные и нежные, острые и сладкие… Если салатов на столе много, то можно уменьшить и количество горячего блюда, гости не останутся голодными.
Not only the selection of ingredients for holiday salads is of great importance, but also the choice of dressing: it flavors the products and to a large extent forms the taste of the finished dish. Dressings and sauces can be both complex, multi-component, and the simplest, for example, vegetable oil with salt and lemon juice - for a green salad.
Festive all dishes are prepared according to original family recipes right on the spot should be both tasty and appetizingly decorated. They are decorated with bright, beautiful products, herbs, mayonnaise netting. The composition of the salad should be clearly visible, so do not overdo it with the amount of decorations.
Ready-made salads are served in special salad bowls or on deep dishes, from where guests put them on themselves with a salad spoon. If you organize a buffet, then festive salads are convenient to serve in portioned glasses or bowls, as well as in tartlets or vol-au-vents.
