Conclusion

Today we told you how to prepare holiday salads according to the principle - we upgrade any salad and get a New Year's version. So let's try to surprise our loved ones and guests with the variety and unusual shapes of delicious salads.

And remember, on New Year's Eve they sit down at the table several times. Therefore, prepare more delicious, bright, original salads!

So, Happy New Year everyone!

No New Year's salads- Olivie, mimosa and herring under a fur coat And we can’t even imagine the New Year’s table. But it is not necessary to limit yourself to a traditional set of salads. After all, there are many such New Year's recipes. For example, great New Year's salads - crab meat salad or rice salad with mussels- they will surely appeal to those who follow the figure. Salads with poultry meat are very popular on holidays: turkey, chicken and even duck go well with delicate salad leaves - it turns out both satisfying and not burdensome for the stomach.

In principle, any salad is a great opportunity to show imagination and ingenuity, because it all depends on how successful combinations of tastes, textures and even temperatures you choose (for example, the meat in the salad can be warm, and the vegetables - cold).

Delicate meat of turkey and chicken goes well with boiled potatoes and carrots, mushrooms, as well as green lettuce, nuts, raw and dried fruits - oranges, apples, pineapple, dried apricots, prunes.

Poultry in almost any New Year's salad can be replaced with squid meat: the taste of the salad will become much softer, but the essence will remain the same. The main thing is to cook this squid so that it does not become rubbery. Actually, you just don't need to cook it. You just need to dip it into hot water (about 80 degrees) for 10 minutes, and that's it.

In general, seafood can make almost any salad festive: their taste, as a rule, is very delicate (but nevertheless very expressive), and they look bright and attractive. The main thing is not to interrupt their delicate taste and not to overdo it in cooking and frying: mussels, shrimps, scallops and other marine life should be cooked for a few seconds, otherwise they will lose their taste, and the notorious tenderness, and freshness. However, some seafood, such as mussels and shrimps, are already boiled in our stores, but there's nothing you can do about it.

They look very elegant New Year's salads from green lettuce leaves. In addition, they are combined with almost anything. But you won't be able to cook them in advance: the leaves will soften, they will lose both volume and color. To postpone the moment of loss of "presentation" and to preserve as much vitamins as possible, it is better not to cut lettuce leaves with a knife, but to tear them with your hands. And one more iron rule: lettuce leaves must be dry - otherwise the dressing will simply drain from them. If you do not have a special device for drying lettuce leaves, shake them after washing and lay them out on a dry, clean towel - after 15 minutes they will be ready for use.

Season New Year's salads with fresh vegetables and green salad leaves just before serving. But salads from boiled vegetables are best seasoned a few hours before serving - so that the dressing has time to be absorbed.

What kind of dish to cook for the New Year is decided by the hostess of the house.

Depending on the symbol of the New Year, this or that dish may be present in abundance on the table, or, on the contrary, it may be absent altogether.
