In Soviet times, many people liked the Passenger salad.

This name appeared for a reason: the dish was served in restaurant cars. Accordingly, it was the passengers who ate it.

The salad's peak popularity came in the seventh decade of the 20th century.

Now the dish is almost forgotten. And completely undeservedly, because despite the simplicity of preparation, it is very appetizing.

The expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, cook, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova recalled the recipe for a once popular salad.
