Many housewives have repeatedly asked themselves whether it is worth salting a traditional salad.
At first glance, it seems simple and obvious: it is customary to salt all dishes.
However, it is worth remembering that salt is also contained in dressings and pickled cucumbers. In addition, many people add this component when cooking vegetables.
However, if you add the product to the salad itself, you can ruin it, some chefs believe.
How to properly prepare a traditional dish
Chefs agree that salt must be added to Olivier salad, otherwise the dish risks being bland and tasteless. Salt in the Olivier ingredients is not enough to make the food balanced and tasty.
If you add a little extra salt when dressing the dish, the salad will definitely be of higher quality.
If you are afraid of oversalting, then you should add only one or two pinches of the component. After that, it is recommended to season with mayonnaise and try it. In most cases, this amount will be quite enough.
