Despite the fact that this salad is prepared much more often than others, it does not become easier.
On the contrary, many housewives make serious mistakes, as a result of which the dish will be far from ideal.
However, this can always be eliminated, says Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.
What mistakes spoil Olivier salad?
Components of different sizes
Of course, it is extremely difficult to cut each product approximately the same, but this is a necessary condition for the Olivier salad to be of high quality and tasty.
The ingredients are cut finely. Peas serve as an example for the other products.
Sausage
Some consider this component to be the most important, but it is not in the original recipe. If you still want to introduce a semi-finished meat product, it must be of high quality.
In all other cases, it is better to replace sausage with chicken, beef, fish or smoked meats.
Carrot
If you want the salad to be as tasty as possible, it is better to bake the carrots. Boiled vegetables acquire a weak watery taste.
But baking the product will be the best option.
