There is a lot of controversy regarding Olivier, as the salad is incredibly important for Slavic cuisine.

It is prepared both for holidays and for everyday meals.

That’s why every housewife wants her dish to be beyond praise.

What are the 3 secrets that will come in handy for this?

Proper Cooking of Potatoes

It doesn't matter how you cook the potatoes, peeled or not, but the speed of cooking is crucial. For a salad, you should cook the vegetable quickly.

Slow cooking results in the potatoes falling apart in the salad, creating a not very appetizing mass.

Carrot

Another important component that can be problematic in terms of flavor and chopping is carrots. Many cooks note that the characteristic flavor disappears as a result of cooking.

Therefore, it is worth preparing carrots for salad in the oven.

Onion

Some cooks do not use onions at all, as they are too "bright" for a salad. However, you can simply pour hot water over the chopped vegetable.

You can also marinate it. This will prevent the onion from standing out, and the salad will be tasty and balanced.
