Salad
Description
A simple dish to prepare. Boil the eggs and potatoes, then grate them on a coarse grater. Finely dice the smoked chicken. Finely chop the onion and pour boiling water over it to remove excess sharpness and odor. Cut the pickles into thin strips. Grate the processed cheese. Finely chop the nuts using a coffee grinder or by hand. Mix the cheese with the nuts. Now layer all the prepared ingredients, spreading mayonnaise on each layer. For those who prefer a lighter salad with less mayonnaise, you can spread it every other layer. The first layer is potatoes; the second is smoked chicken; the third is onion; the fourth is pickles (if desired, you can substitute canned corn or green peas); the fifth is eggs; the sixth is cheese with nuts. When adding your own layers, remember that eggs and the cheese-nut mixture should end up on top. Shape the layers to resemble pine cones. Decorate the pine cones with almonds and herbs (pine twigs, parsley, or rosemary). Serve chilled.
