This is how some of the cod salad recipes appeared that can decorate any table. The product is successfully combined with lemon juice, vegetables, herbs - all this is used in cod liver salad in a classic recipe.
This salad is not so easy to prepare, but it is worth it because of its unique taste. It is prepared in layers, and each layer is smeared with mayonnaise. In order to do it, you need to take:
First you need to boil the carrots and grate it on a medium-sized grater. Open the jar of liver and drain the oil, then put it in a deep bowl and mash with a fork to small pieces. Put the liver in the form of a circle on a pre-prepared shallow dish so that the finished salad looks like a fluffy cake.
The next layer will be onions. It must be peeled, finely chopped, squeezed out the resulting juice, lightly pepper and put on the first layer. Gently place grated carrots on top of the onion and brush with a thin layer of mayonnaise. To create the next layer, grate potatoes, add pepper, grease with mayonnaise.
Open the canned corn and drain the liquid. Put it on carrots and coat with mayonnaise. On top of the corn, grate or cut the cucumber into small cubes. This is the top layer of the lettuce.
Spread all the edges with mayonnaise and put the finished dish in the refrigerator for half an hour to infuse it. After that, remove and gently wipe off excess drops of mayonnaise. Make sure the salad cake is flat and ready to serve.
Such canned cod salad is on almost every table. It can be served both for a weekday lunch and for a festive table. In order to cook it, you need to take:
To begin with, boil the carrots and eggs until tender. Grate the cooked carrots, leave in a deep bowl. Peel the eggs, divide into whites and yolks, grate separately on a fine grater. Onion cut into small cubes.
According to the salad recipe, you need to drain the oil from canned cod liver, and knead the product itself with a fork. Next, take a shallow dish of the right size and put the liver mixed with a small part of the mayonnaise. Lettuce is laid out in the form of a crawling snake.
The second layer is onions. Proteins are laid out in the third layer and smeared with mayonnaise. From above wake up with yolks.
Puff salad needs to stand in a cold place for about an hour to infuse. Cod liver in salads recipes can be replaced with canned fish, such as saury.
In the preparation of a light cod liver salad, the recipe is not a feature, it's all about making small portions into tartlets. In order to prepare a salad, you will need:
First you need to boil the eggs hard boiled, then put in cold water to cool. Peel the cooled products from the shell and crush with a fork to small crumbs. After that, put in a deep bowl.
Open a can of canned food and carefully drain the oil. After that, add it to the crushed eggs, mash again with a fork until the pieces are the same size. You can mash the eggs and cod liver with a fork and separately, and then add them to one bowl and mix, but in no case should you use an electric meat grinder or blender. After all, when using electrical appliances, you get a homogeneous mixture in the form of gruel, which is not necessary in this recipe.
Finely chop the green onion and add to the resulting salad. Lemon juice is added to taste. To do this, you need to cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice out of it with your hands in the right proportion. Next, salt the resulting mass to taste and mix well.
Arrange everything in ready-made tartlets. In the absence of crispy baskets, the salad mass can be laid out on croutons or toast from black bread. Serve with hot soup.
This cod liver salad is delicious, very tender and high in calories. It can also be served without a side dish. It is prepared in layers, and to impregnate the dish, it is necessary to leave it for 1.5 - 2 hours. In order to cook it, take:
The first thing to do in this salad is to dissolve the gelatin in 150 - 200 grams of cold water.. After the mass swells, it is heated over low heat, stirring continuously, until the grains are completely dissolved. Remove the liquid from the stove. Mayonnaise, vinegar, salt and pepper are added to water and gelatin. The resulting mixture is placed in a cold place to thicken the jelly.
A jar of canned cod liver is opened and the water is drained from it. After that, the contents from the jar are transferred to a bowl and knead with a fork until smooth.
Celery is washed and finely chopped, added to the crushed liver. The products are carefully combined with the gelatinous mass. Everything is thoroughly mixed and laid out in a pre-prepared form. After that, leave until the jelly solidifies completely. To prevent the appearance of unwanted odors in the dish, when sent to the refrigerator, cover the form with food foil or film. Which option to choose - the chef decides.
When the salad has completely hardened, it is taken out of the refrigerator and the form is lowered into hot water for 5 - 7 seconds. Leaves of Beijing cabbage are placed on a dish with shallow edges, and the resulting soufflé is placed on them, turning the shape over.
Boiled eggs are shelled and the whites are separated from the yolks. Finely chopped green onions are laid out on top of the souffle with the first layer, then the yolks are rubbed on a fine grater.
To decorate a delicate soufflé, you can use protein and a little boiled carrot. To do this, carefully cut out flowers from three proteins and lay them in the middle of the salad. Cut boiled carrots into three parts and cut nine long sticks out of them. Roll the bars into loops and lay them, imitating the petals of a flower. A bright addition to the decorative composition can be fresh parsley leaves.

In a puff cake with cod liver, it is important to take into account several nuances.
Most cod liver salads are cousins. but in serving ready-made dishes you can dream up due to fine cutting of the components and the viscous texture of the main ingredient:
The first recipe - a classic layered and very tasty cod liver salad - will require a large dish and a detachable baking dish
Cooking time. Boil the ingredients - 30 minutes. We collect the salad - 20 minutes. We insist in the cold - 2 hours.
We need:
How we prepare:
Briefly - step by step layers in the classic cod liver salad recipe:
And now in detail - with hints and photos for each step.
Boil hard boiled eggs (10 minutes). Boil potatoes in uniforms and carrots.
To easily peel vegetables and eggs, immediately after cooking, put them under cold water.
We clean the boiled root crops and three on a coarse grater.
Chop the green onion very finely. Open a jar of cod liver oil and drain the oil. They can be seasoned with other dishes. Mash the cod liver with a fork to a comfortable paste-like consistency.
We clean the eggs and separate the whites from the yolks.
How easy is it to separate the components of a boiled egg? We draw a knife across the egg, as if denoting the median circle. Open the halves and remove the yolk, as shown in the photo below.
We grate the whites and yolks - just like the rest of the components.
We take out a convenient tool for quickly forming a salad in layers:
An ordinary spoon will do: you need a little more dexterity
We will collect the salad in a baking dish (16-17 cm), putting it with the top smooth side down.
Distribute all layers evenly and gently press down.
The first layer is grated potatoes, which will absorb the fat from the liver and keep the salad from leaking and losing its shape.
The second layer is the cod liver itself.
The third layer is grated egg whites, on top of which we squeeze out a mesh of mayonnaise and, without pressure (!) Smear it over the entire surface.
When buying mayonnaise, we choose vertical packaging. If it does not have a convenient tip, cut off a very small corner so that the stream of mayonnaise can be thin.
The fourth layer is green onions: it is convenient to distribute it by hand. On top of this layer, you can also smear with mayonnaise, but you should not smear it and press the cut.
Fifth - grated carrots. We will lightly tamp this layer again, cover with mayonnaise and distribute it tightly (!) So that the whole carrot is covered.
The last - sixth - layer: grated egg yolk shavings.
Secrets of taste and stable shape
As you noticed, we use mayonnaise and salt to taste. Usually it is worth salting the densest layers - potato, protein, liver and carrot. And with mayonnaise, you can coat only those ingredients that are too structural (green onions, protein). Then the salad will not float, but appetizingly soaked in sauce.
The choice of mayonnaise is up to you. We use a classic (without additives) and light in fat sauce, because the dish is oversaturated with fats due to fish liver.
The result of the work is colorful in spring! We let the salad stand in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours to get the perfect ensemble, which is so easy to cut into portions, like a delicious cake.
A recipe in which everything is exactly the same as in a classic salad, but we replace the green onions with finely chopped onions and pieces of prunes. Do not be surprised! A custom twist with these sweet dried fruits will make this fish dish even more tender.
We take the ingredients and peep the processing sequence in the photo above.
Finely chop a small white onion and pour boiling water for 2 minutes to remove the bitterness.
Prunes (5-6 large fruits) are soaked in boiling water for 5 minutes, dried with a paper towel and cut into small pieces.
A layer of prunes with onions - in place of green onions.
