Salad
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. Instead of serving herring and potatoes separately, you can combine them into a colorful and tasty salad called "Russian Snack," served chilled. It's perfect to take along on a picnic or trip, as the flavors will have time to meld. Don't forget a shot of vodka—it will go perfectly with the salad. The salad is ready to serve.
