Russian-style herring salad
Description
Minimum effort — excellent result. This dish has many different names and recipe variations, but one thing remains unchanged: many love it and cook it regularly. I'd like to share my version with you. In addition to the traditional vegetables, I suggest adding an apple to the salad. It gives a pleasant, distinctive touch. This is a great dish for both everyday meals and festive occasions. If you haven't tried making it yet, I highly recommend you start. It can be served immediately.
