New Year's herring under a fur coat
Description
Minimum effort — excellent result. Recently I read that the recipe was invented in 1918. The herring in the salad symbolizes the proletariat, the potatoes represent the peasants, and the red beet stands for the color of the Soviet flag. It was first served on the eve of the New Year 1919 at Bogomilov's tavern. The salad was immediately appreciated and quickly gained widespread popularity among the people. Can be served immediately.
