Instructions
Step 1
Before preparing the salad, you will have to do a little preparation, namely: boil hard-boiled eggs, peel the onion and cut into small cubes.
Step 2
Open a jar of canned salmon, drain the liquid from it. Do the same for canned sweet corn. Remove the hard bones from the fish. Mash the pulp with a fork.
Step 3
Peel boiled and cooled eggs from the shell. Separate the yolks from the whites. The whites can be grated and the yolks can be kneaded.
Step 4
Grate the cheese on a fine grater.
Step 5
Wash and peel the apples and cut the cores. Grate them on a coarse grater. This must be done before picking the salad so that the apples do not have time to oxidize and darken.
Step 6
Lay the components of the salad on a beautiful dish in layers in the following order:
1st layer: canned salmon, mashed with a fork;
2nd layer: finely chopped onion, seasoned with a little ground black pepper;
3rd layer: sprinkle the grated apple with lemon juice so that it does not darken and acquire a slight sourness. Add some ground black pepper;
4th layer: salt the mashed yolks to taste, grease this layer with mayonnaise;
5th layer: red caviar;
6th layer: corn;
7th layer: cheese must be mixed with mayonnaise, pepper a little;
8th layer: proteins mixed with mayonnaise. Add some salt for flavor.
The sequence of layers can be different, at your discretion, but the protein layer must be the last one.
Step 7
You can decorate the salad by simply cutting the slightly frozen salted red fish into narrow strips and laying them on the surface of the salad in a continuous layer, as in the photo, or you can show a little imagination and lay the strips of salmon in the form of a beautiful flower. Sprigs of greenery will replace the leaves. Spread the red caviar around in a pattern. Hard-boiled quail eggs can be cut into halves and placed on a salad. Around, from a pastry syringe with a star-shaped attachment, squeeze out the cream cheese.
