Everyone is very surprised and delighted when they see me using pickled cucumber in a salad. It is really unusual and very original. I will share with you a salad recipe and show with an example what I do with a cucumber. By the way, I will definitely prepare such a salad for the New Year 2020! Delicious, simple and quick recipe.
For video lovers, I have prepared a short video recipe, see:
First, I'll make a salad.
I cut the boiled eggs into cubes and put them in a deep bowl.
Finely chop the onion. I use red onion for this salad - it is sweeter and looks spectacular in my salad. You can take regular onions. See for yourself.
I add the onion to the eggs.
I cut the boiled carrots into cubes and add to a bowl.
I also cut the herring (fillet) into cubes. All cubes should be about the same size, then the salad will look very nice. I add herring to the rest of the ingredients.
Herring salad is almost ready. I add mayonnaise (I have homemade), grainy mustard, black pepper and mix. This filling is just great.
I don't salt the salad. Salted herring + more cucumbers from the jar.
Salad ready. It already looks great, but…. I promised to tell you what I do with pickles. It's just a "find of the century".
I take cucumbers (which we close for the winter) are not very large, better than 10 centimeters. Looks very good.
I cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise.
Remove the pulp (middle) with a teaspoon. You should get such cucumber boats. In the video above, you can see how I do it.
I fill them with salad.
Garnish with green onions and parsley. Done! The presentation is great. All guests are surprised and now they do so too.
You can eat it with a cucumber, or you can just eat it with a spoon. As you like.
For the New Year's table, I will definitely prepare such a salad - an appetizer. This dish will become a festive table decoration! In the video above, see how the feed looks like. There I showed it very beautifully.
Bon Appetit!
