"Winter" salad is one of the names of the famous "Olivier" salad. The salad got its name due to the fact that its ingredients are readily available in winter, in contrast to the ingredients of "summer" salads. The salad is very popular and is traditionally one of the main dishes on the festive table. Meat can be replaced with sausage. You can also add boiled carrots to the salad.
