OLIVIER SALAD

Olivier, or Russian salad is a famous dish invented in Russia. This legendary salad associates with New Year: overwhelming majority of Russians makes it especially at this holiday. Its inventor, however, was born in France: Lucien Olivier came to this country as a chef in Moscow restaurant ‘Hermitage’. All visitors ordered this salad, and everybody tried to guess what it consisted of, but with no success.

First Olivier’s recipe was issued in 1894, and there was nothing of the kind of a modern course. Fried hazel-hen, capers, crawfishes, Cabool sauce – have you ever seen them in Russian salad? I haven’t, too; but I’m sure that Olivier’s salad in its usual way is worse not at all. So, let’s make it now!
