Yes, because it is easy to cook, it is elegant and beautiful, and really very tasty thanks to an unusual combination of ingredients. For the Snowman salad with crab sticks, we need a large flat dish.

Before proceeding directly to the preparation of the salad, it is necessary to boil the eggs, and also lay out mushrooms, cucumbers and carrots separately in dishes lined with clean paper towels.

Thaw the crab sticks beforehand. They can be dipped in warm water for 10 minutes. Crab sticks go well with boiled eggs. And so that the appetizer does not seem fresh, you can add garlic. Mayonnaise is suitable for dressing, but it does not need to be added a lot, otherwise the mass will not form into balls.

How to cook a “Snowman” appetizer for the New Year

Grind thawed crab sticks, cream cheese and hard boiled eggs on a fine grater.


Combine all of the listed ingredients, add a pinch of salt, mayonnaise and garlic, passed through a press or grated on them, to them. The result should be a uniform and sticky mixture, from which it will be easy to form a snowman.


We make round balls with our hands (3 jokes for each snowman) and roll them in coconut flakes. Moreover, every third ball we sculpt a little smaller in size than the rest.


We begin to form a snowman: we put large balls on top of each other, on top - the smallest. For greater stability, you can fasten them together using 1-2 wooden toothpicks.

From boiled carrots we form a nose and a hat for a snowman. The hat can also be made from fresh cucumber or from rye crackers.


Cut the olive into small pieces for the eyes and buttons. Instead of black olives, you can use black pepper peas.


We tie a feather of green onion around the “neck” of the snowman and fix it with a caraway seed (you can replace it with cloves).


The Snowman appetizer is ready! Serve the dish immediately after preparation or send in the refrigerator until the guests arrive. Bon appetit and happy holidays!

New Year is a cheerful, magical and long-awaited holiday. And every hostess really wants to please and surprise all her guests, especially the little ones. Everyone loves to make snowmen, so this year I decided to stick edible snowmen, and the kids helped me with pleasure.

The recipe is very simple and can remind a lot of crab salad, but with a good design, it is doubly pleasant to eat.

Cooking:

First you need to boil rice.

As well as eggs and carrots.

Pour boiled rice into any convenient container, I have a pan.

There, crush the eggs.

We chop the remaining sticks or, like eggs, rub on a grater and send to our saucepan.

We rub half the cheese (we need the second half for decoration).

Also pour into the container, add mayonnaise there and mix.

Now you can begin to form the snowmen themselves.

First, grate the remaining cheese on a fine grater.

Then we separate from the total mass of 4 large lumps for the lower half of the body of snowmen.

And in each lump we put one olive.

Roll in cheese and put on a plate, on which we will serve a snack on the table.

From the remaining amount of mass we form four smaller lumps, also roll in cheese and put on top of large lumps.

We cut buckets and spouts from boiled carrots and attach them to our snowmen.

From the red parts of the crab sticks we make scarves.

Cut the remaining olive into small pieces - these will be the eyes and buttons.

Sprinkle the remaining cheese with snowmen, like snow ... And voila! The appetizer is ready!

You can serve it to the table!

The appetizer is very tasty and interesting, and both children and adults like it.
