Cod liver can be used to make a variety of dishes, including salads, sandwiches, deviled eggs and other snacks.

True, these dishes do not always turn out as tasty as we would like. According to the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", chef Yulia Arkhipova, the mistake is made even before the start of cooking, when the hostess, due to inexperience, chooses low-quality canned goods.

How to choose the "right" cod liver

Before paying for a purchase, you should always make sure that everything is in order with the expiration date.

Carefully study the information about the composition and the manufacturer - the best option is products from trusted brands with a good reputation, without preservatives, dyes and flavors, which contain a minimum of salt and oil.

Make sure that the can is labeled simply as “Cod liver” without any other additions.

How to make cod liver salad

Take a can of cod liver, drain the oil and mash the contents with a fork.

You will also need 3 hard-boiled eggs, which should be sliced. You will also need to cut 1 fresh cucumber into thin strips, and chop a bunch of green onions.

Combine all the prepared ingredients. Add 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise if desired, but this is not necessary, as the cod liver is already quite fatty and juicy.
