Salad with apples and ham
Description
This salad can also be used when preparing a buffet: simply place it into ramekins, or even better, into tartlets or cheese cups. Your guests will be delighted! Preparing this salad should not present any difficulties. The only thing I'd like to emphasize is the mayonnaise. I never use store-bought mayonnaise, and I recommend you avoid it too. Homemade mayonnaise greatly enhances the flavor of any dish—just make it once and you'll be convinced. And a salad with apples and ham dressed with homemade mayonnaise versus store-bought? As they say in Odessa, "Two big differences."
