In the Olivier salad beloved by many, the main role belongs to the meat component – boiled sausage or boiled chicken.
But, according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova, these are not the best options for preparing the salad.
If you want to make Olivier truly festive, listen to the following tips and try adding something new to it.
Boiled tongue
Instead of sausage, include beef or pork tongue in the dish, which must be boiled beforehand. Tongue is much tastier than the best sausage and, in addition, is a completely natural product.
Smoked chicken
Boiled chicken in Olivier can be successfully replaced with smoked chicken. As a result, the salad will acquire an unusual but pleasant flavor, and the dish will sparkle with new flavor notes.
Fried meat
Some chefs recommend using fried meat instead of boiled meat in the Olivier salad recipe. You need to fry pieces of pork (beef or chicken) with salt, pepper and spices, then cut them into cubes and add to the salad.
