Salad with boiled tongue
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This is a traditional dish that many people prepare not only for New Year's table—a salad with boiled tongue, made in the style of "Olivier". I also add capers to this salad, which give it extra piquancy. In addition, the salad includes potatoes, carrots, and canned green peas. Serve at the table.
