Many people think that it is impossible to make Olivier salad without sausage: this recipe is so familiar to us.
It is worth noting that sausage as one of the main ingredients was included in the recipe only in Soviet times.
Therefore, it will not be difficult to replace the semi-finished product with something more interesting, says chef Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in culinary issues for the online publication BelNovosti.
What products are ideal substitutes for sausage?
Beef tongue
This component is often used by chefs, as the taste of a familiar salad will instantly become refined and sophisticated. Beef tongue is added boiled.
Smoked meats
In this case, the taste of Olivier will become brighter and more original. Smoked meats always stand out against the background of other components.
Mushrooms
This is a great option for those who want to "take a break" from animal protein. Mushrooms contain a very large number of valuable nutrients.
It is best to add the mushrooms fried. In this case, the Olivier will be much tastier.
