On March 8, I want to please my loved ones with something special: beautiful, tender and light like spring. Mimosa salad is ideal for the holiday table: it looks elegant, is easy to prepare and reminds of the first spring flowers.
Ingredients:
Canned pink salmon or sardine – 1 can
Chicken eggs – 4 pcs.
Hard cheese – 100 g
Onion – 1 small head
Butter – 50 g optional
Mayonnaise – 150 g
Preparation:
- Boil the eggs hard, cool and peel.
- Open the fish, drain the liquid and mash into small pieces with a fork.
- Finely chop the onion and pour boiling water over it to remove the bitterness.
- Grate the cheese on a fine grater, divide the eggs into whites and yolks and grate separately.
- Lay the salad in layers in a deep dish, coating each layer with mayonnaise: 1st layer: fish, 2nd layer: onions, 3rd layer: whites, 4th layer: cheese, 5th layer: yolks.
- Garnish the salad with sprigs of dill or parsley, creating the effect of spring flowers.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving, this will help the layers become saturated and the flavors will become more harmonious.
Bon appetit!
