Olivier salad can be called one of the most popular salads. But isn't the usual recipe "boring"?
Even Olivier salad can surprise you if you use unusual ingredients during its preparation.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to improve Olivier.
Avocado
An additional ingredient that can bring new notes to Olivier is avocado.
This creamy and rich fruit can add freshness and softness to every bite of a dish. Instead of the traditional mayonnaise base, avocado can give Olivier a delicate and healthier taste.
It is also important to understand that many people consider Olivier a "harmful" salad. And by replacing mayonnaise, you can completely turn your idea of it upside down. You can always experiment, but here you can also remember about reasonable concentration.
Seafood
If you want to make a luxurious salad, and not an ordinary one, you can add seafood, such as shrimp or crab meat, instead of chicken or ham.
This will give the dish an exquisite taste and unique aroma. Of course, when choosing seafood, you should always be rational. The fact is that they can affect the final taste of the dish.
Indian spices
Sometimes all Olivier needs is a little exoticism. You can try adding the following Indian spices to this salad:
1) curry.
2) garammassala and others.
These spices will add new aromas and tastes to Olivier that will surprise you. Of course, spices are quite easy to use, but you need to start from rationality.
Regular spices can greatly affect the taste of Olivier. And if you overdo it with adding them, you can ruin the salad.
