Classic salad
Description
A simple dish to prepare. The base for all versions of the "Stolichny" salad is the same: boiled vegetables, eggs, and chicken meat. But originally, this salad included additional ingredients: crayfish tails and capers, as well as piccalilli—small pickled vegetables, which could be substituted with pickled cucumbers. In this recipe, I will tell you. Serve chilled.
