Olivier Salad

Olivier Salad is a classic Russian-style salad combining boiled potatoes, carrots, eggs, diced ham, pickles, onions, and peas, all diced into small uniform cubes and bound with mayonnaise. The salad offers a balanced mix of creamy and savory flavors with varied textures from crisp pickles to soft boiled vegetables and protein from the ham and eggs.

Description

The salad starts with boiling potatoes, carrots, and eggs until fully cooked and tender. After cooling, all ingredients including sour pickles, onion, peas, ham, and the boiled items are chopped into similar-sized small cubes to create a uniform appearance and texture. The cooked and chopped ingredients are combined in a bowl and mixed thoroughly with mayonnaise, which binds the salad together and adds creaminess.

Seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper is adjusted to taste, balancing the flavors. The quantities can be scaled up or down depending on the number of servings needed. Olivier Salad is typically served chilled and is a popular dish for gatherings, providing a filling and flavorful option with a variety of textures and tastes in each bite.
