Not all housewives put beef or other types of natural meat in Olivier salad.
Usually people limit themselves to adding cooked sausage: this product is also tasty.
In addition, this ingredient is relatively cheap and does not require additional heat treatment.
But there is a problem: many cooks do not cut the sausage product correctly before adding it to the dish. As a result, the salad becomes much less appetizing.
What mistake do housewives make?
Many people cut their food too large.
Pieces of 1 cm in size are very large for a salad. Moreover, even a size of 0.7-0.8 mm is not small.
Such huge sausage cubes make the dish too "coarse".
How to properly cut sausage for Olivier
The size of each piece should be 0.5-0.6 mm. By the way, eggs, potatoes and carrots should also be cut exactly like this.
In this case, the taste of the ingredients will be revealed to the maximum. Olivier will acquire the ideal consistency. The dish will be tender and incredibly tasty.
