Salad
Description
Similarly, you can prepare any salad with similar ingredients. The key point of this dish is not the exact recipe, but the idea itself. This salad really resembles Santa Claus's hat in appearance, and the ingredients used here are similar to those in the "Olivier" salad. The result is both delicious and attractive.

Step 10
Place the grated proteins to form a pom-pom and cover it with a thin layer of the "hood" trim. Do not press down the layer, so that the "fur trim" remains fluffy. If desired, the proteins can be salted beforehand and mixed with mayonnaise.
