The Soviet elite never ordered Olivier in a restaurant, only this salad.
Salads of the USSR They were always distinguished by a special originality and the most unexpected combination of ingredients, which at first glance did not quite harmonize with each other. Since the choice of products in stores left much to be desired, salads in the USSR were always cooked with fiction and imagination. Useful such gastronomic masterpieces, generously seasoned with mayonnaise, no one could call, but their taste was amazing!
New items first appeared and prepared in restaurants, but then their recipes hostess borrowed and adapted for themselves. Soviet salads had almost everything you could find in the refrigerator. Olivier and “Herring under a coat” are still popular. But at the time, there was another very common salad that was undeservedly forgotten about, its name "Laura."
Recently, Tatiana called me and told me that my beloved grandmother is planning an anniversary. To congratulate the dear old lady will come her friends from a distant youth. My girlfriend couldn’t think of a way to surprise her grandmother and the gathered guests, so that it would become an unexpected surprise and a memory from the past. Tanya asked for advice and was very worried that the celebration liked the elderly. I tried to calm my friend down, and we had a little conversation about our birthday.
When I heard what I was talking about, my mother joined us. We discussed the menu for the festive dinner on speakerphone for a long time, and she suggested preparing Soviet salads, which were in demand in those years. Among the dishes voiced by the mother was listed salad "Laura". Tatiana asked what Laura we were talking about, and I stared at my mother with a misunderstanding.
How? Have you ever heard of Laura salad? It was prepared by all our grandmothers. My mother told us in detail how to make a salad, how to serve it, and how her mother-in-law, my grandmother, loved it at one time.
