Salad
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The "Swan's Fidelity" salad is probably one of the most romantic and festive salads. It looks beautiful on a holiday table, but I think this salad would be most appropriate for February 14th or March 8th. Either way, this dish deserves a place at any festive table. Besides, it's very tasty and filling, and not at all difficult to prepare. Serve it at the table.

First, we'll make the swans. From two boiled eggs, cut off a small strip of the white to make tails for the birds. Set the eggs aside.

Step 2
Take a fresh egg, cut a "neck" out of it, and shape a "beak" from a piece of cooked carrot. Use peppercorns for the "eyes." Attach the beak to the neck with a toothpick. But don't forget to warn your guests about the toothpick :)
