Salads with herring for the New Year.  Salad with herring and potatoes for the New Year.  Mediterranean Holiday Salad with Marinated Shrimp

Ingredients:
Herring - 1 piece
Carrot - 1 piece
Garlic: 1-2 cloves
Green onions: 1-2 sprigs
Olive oil: 50 ml
Capers - 1 tbsp.
Apple - 1 piece
Potatoes: 3-4 pcs.
Parsley: 3-4 sprigs
Spices: salt, pepper, curry

Preparing herring salad (45 min):

1. Prepare ingredients.

Choosing herring is an art. Try not to take herring that is sold on the street from a “bucket”. It is better to take the herring from the same proven place. The herring should be undamaged, glossy and without dents. The back of a good herring is blue-black and dark. The belly and sides are silver. Under no circumstances should reddish liquid ooze from the herring. And, of course, the smell should be spicy, “herring”, and not smell like fresh fish. Once your herring has been weighed, feel free to pinch off a piece of it just behind the head on the back and taste it. Or tear out the side fin. However, with time you will get the hang of it.

I clean the herring by placing it on regular newspaper, so the paper absorbs moisture. With a sharp knife, I make a shallow longitudinal cut from head to tail - half the withers. Then I use my fingers to remove all the skin, starting from the head. I then cut off and discard the head and tip of the tail. With the same knife I cut off the belly - no more than 5 mm from the very bottom. I gut the insides, using a knife to remove the dark film lining the internal cavity. If there is a lot of liquid and “extra” inside, you can wipe it off with a regular napkin. Then with my left hand I grab the protruding spine where the head was, and with the fingers of my right hand I tear off the fillet from the spine. All that remains is to select all the bones. You will get two herring fillets - without bones. The whole procedure takes about 5 minutes.

2. Cut the herring across the fillet into pieces 6-8 mm wide.

3. Peel the carrots and cut into small cubes. Fry carrots in 1 tbsp. olive oil until soft. Set the carrots aside.

4. Green onions - only the feather, finely chopped. However, you can cut the white part into a salad, but the green part is more aesthetically pleasing, so it’s up to your discretion. Also chop the parsley.

5. Bake potatoes. Or boil it in its jacket. Cool and peel. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and cut into thin slices - large enough, approximately the same as a herring.

6. Peel the apple and cut into thin slices. Drizzle 1 tsp over apple slices. lemon juice and stir. This will prevent the apple from becoming oxidized due to oxidation.

7. In a large bowl, mix potatoes, herring, carrots, capers. Add salt and mix.

8. Add chopped apples, parsley and green onions. Season with ground black pepper.

9. Grind the garlic cloves in a mortar and add the curry mixture on the tip of a knife. Pour olive oil into a mortar and grind until smooth. Pour the dressing over the salad and stir.

Next there are two options. The first is to start snacking immediately. But I recommend putting the salad in the refrigerator for a couple of hours so that the salad can brew and soak in the dressing. And then you can start. You'll like it.

Bon appetit!

Take one medium carcass of lightly salted Norwegian herring. Peel it and remove seeds, as in the video above, and chop the pulp finely.

Now prepare the onions. Chop a large onion into thin half rings, as in the photo.


Over low heat, sauté the onion in vegetable oil until translucent and light golden brown. Don't fry it too much, otherwise it will taste bitter. If you don't like the taste of fried onions, add them fresh. A even better - first marinate in apple cider vinegar with a pinch of sugar.


Prepare a wide, flat serving plate to serve on. Place a metal serving ring in the center.

If there is no such ring, you can do it differently. In this case, lay out all layers of salad in the reverse order. Take a round bowl with straight sides and line it with cling film. Form the salad into layers in a bowl, and then turn this container upside down onto a flat plate. After you remove the bowl with the film, the neatly arranged snack will remain on the plate. Just don't forget to decorate it on top.




Grated boiled potatoes will be the first layer, place them in the ring.


Coat all layers well with mayonnaise.


Pieces of herring go in the second layer.


Add the grated apple to the ring and immediately cover it with mayonnaise so that it does not darken.


Another layer will be golden onions; first place them in a sieve to remove excess oil. Place grated carrots on the onion, don’t forget about mayonnaise.


Make the final layer of grated whites and yolks.


The herring salad is ready, now you can remove the ring from it and serve.

If desired, you can decorate the top of the salad with a sprig of fresh herbs.

Best regards, Elbi.

No holiday table is complete without such an important dish as salad! And even more so such a festive table as New Year's! And if sometimes it’s quite easy to decide on the main dish, then there is always a special attitude and attention to its preparation. You always want to prepare it in such a way that it meets a number of requirements.

  • It is desirable that it be new. But since you don’t always want to experiment with new dishes for such a big holiday, you need to find a new version for the old, already tested one.
  • It should be relatively simple.
  • It should look bright and colorful.
  • It must be delicious.
  • It must correspond to the Symbol of the coming Year!

And I want to bring to your attention one of them.

As you can already see, the dish has the name “Pig in the Snow”. An interesting recipe with an interesting presentation. And it’s very easy to prepare. Watch it and get ready. It won't take much time.

How to cook Olivier - a special recipe for the New Year

It's hard to imagine a New Year's holiday without the traditional one. Every year we want to find a replacement for it, but someone in the family will certainly ask: “Will there be Olivier?” And no matter how much you want to replace it with something else, it doesn’t work. And all because it cannot be replaced by anything!

It is as simple as it is delicious. Everything in it is balanced, nothing is subtracted, nothing is added.


And this year I designed it in the shape of a pig. The link to the recipe was given above.


Everyone knows the classic set of ingredients:

  • boiled meat - 300 gr
  • egg - 4 pcs
  • potatoes - 3 pcs.
  • carrots - 1 pc.
  • cucumber (fresh or canned) -2-3 pcs (depending on size)
  • green onion - bunch
  • green peas (canned) - 0.5 cans
  • mayonnaise - to taste
  • salt, pepper - to taste

Preparation:

1. Boil carrots, potatoes and eggs, cool, peel and cut into small cubes. Try not to overcook vegetables so that when cutting, the cubes have a shape and do not fall apart.


2. Boil the meat in salted water, cool and cut into small cubes. You can use ham and sausage instead.


3. Cucumbers can be used either fresh or canned. We also cut the cucumbers into cubes.


We try to cut all ingredients to approximately the same size and shape. This will make him look more attractive.

4. Place all chopped ingredients in a large bowl. There is no need to stir anything.

5. Add chopped green onions.


6. Add green peas, from which we carefully drain all the water.

7. Add salt and pepper to taste, mix.

8. Before serving, add mayonnaise and mix gently, trying to keep the “cubes” intact.


If you do this, the taste of the salad will be simply impeccable!

9. Place it beautifully in a special form or on a flat plate. There are many ways to decorate the New Year's Olivier. Exactly as much as the flight of our imagination extends.


I like the option when it is laid out in the form of a Christmas wreath, this is how we will decorate our cold dish “Pomegranate Bracelet” (we will discuss it below). It is quite easy to arrange it this way.

Place a glass in the center of the dish. Place the mixture mixed with mayonnaise around the glass. Press it lightly with a spoon and give it the desired shape. Remove the glass and decorate the dish as you wish. You can put a thick layer of dill on it, on which you can put processed cheese cut out in the shape of stars. Garnish with pomegranate seeds, canned corn and grated hard cheese.

Or cut bells out of cheese, or ribbons out of pickled cucumbers. Form the dish into the shape of a cake and decorate it as you wish.


But here is a beautifully designed version, which seems to remind us that after a long winter, summer will certainly come. And the ladybugs running out onto the meadow will delight everyone with their bright appearance.


This is what the design is all about. But the content may also change! If you don’t want to use chicken, then adding some smoked meats wouldn’t hurt. Along with boiled meat, you can use smoked sausage and brisket. And if you want, you can use boiled tongue instead of meat.

There are Olivier recipes where shrimp, squid or salmon or trout fillets are used instead of meat. The Pig and the Boar will also not be against such a change. And the dish will turn out with an original taste. And no one will even understand that you prepared it based on Olivier.

Incredibly tender and tasty salad Snowdrifts with snowmen

This is such a beautiful dish with a winter theme that you can prepare for the holiday table. It turns out incredibly tender and tasty, so it flies off the table first.


And creating such beauty is not at all difficult. Let's see how to do this.

We will need:

  • smoked chicken breast (you can boil it yourself) – 250 g
  • boiled carrots – 1 large
  • boiled potatoes – 2 pcs.
  • cucumber – 200 gr
  • hard boiled eggs – 5 pcs.
  • cheese – 100 gr
  • salt to taste


For the sauce:

  • canned white beans – 100 g
  • mayonnaise – 150 – 200 gr
  • garlic – 1 clove
  • dill – 2 sprigs

For snowmen:

  • quail eggs – 4 pcs
  • green onion – 2 feathers
  • boiled carrots – 0.5 pcs.
  • carnations for eyes and buttons

Preparation:

1. Prepare the sauce. To do this, place beans and garlic in a blender bowl and puree. Separately chop the dill for flavor and add it to the resulting mixture.


Mix with mayonnaise and set aside for now.


2. Cut boiled eggs into two halves and remove the yolk. Mash it with a fork and pour in one, maybe a little more, spoon of sauce. Stir until smooth and fill the egg white halves.

If necessary, add a little salt to each ingredient. But you can do without it. It's a matter of taste here!

3. Prepare a dish on which we will collect all the components. Our first layer will be potatoes. Rub it directly over the dish, and then level it with a fork, giving it a round or square shape.


Brush with a small amount of sauce, without pressing the potatoes too hard. It is advisable to make the layers loose, this is how the tenderness of the finished dish is achieved.

4. Our next layer will be carrots. Three of it directly above the dish, level it and pour the sauce over it.

5. Then add cubes of chopped ham. Pull them down slightly to cover the bright carrots. The layer also needs sauce.


6. Chop the cucumbers into cubes and place them in the next layer. Place the remaining sauce on them and distribute it evenly.

7. Place the filled eggs on top of them, convex side up. And if cucumber greens are visible between them, then it should be covered with mayonnaise. Also coat the side walls with mayonnaise.


8. Using cheese we will create snowdrifts. To do this, there is three hard cheese right above our structure. And it should cover the entire surface of our treat evenly, like a snowball.


9. Making snowmen. Cut off the ends of the eggs, and at the cut points, connect the two halves with a toothpick. It should still stick out above their heads.

Cut two circles from the carrot, one larger and the other smaller, and place them sequentially on the tip. This is our hat. We make a nose from carrots, and eyes and buttons from carnations.

Use parsley sprigs for handles. And so that the cut at the place where the body and head are attached is not visible, tie a scarf made of onion feathers.


Place our beauties on the snowdrifts and be sure to smile!!! What great fellows we are! They created such beauty.

Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for about an hour or two. And serve!!!

Video on how to prepare Snowdrifts salad

I would also like to show you this cooking option in a video version. It’s too good, beautiful and tasty! It's one of our favorite winter recipes.

Just pay attention to the fact that here the sauce is prepared with onions, which were not previously marinated or scalded with boiling water. Therefore, it has light flavor notes. If you don’t like these, then don’t add onions at all!

And look how cute our snowmen turned out. They can be made as a decoration for any dish on the holiday table.

And if the top layer is covered not with cheese, but with yolks, you will get another salad called “Raffaello”. You can see his recipe, where this option and many others are available.

Snow King with red fish and caviar, recipe – new 2019

This is also a new recipe and is original. It is based on another interesting and more famous analogue, The Snow Queen. But I thought about how long the queen would show off on the festive table alone, and prepared the King for her. I think she will be happy.


The difference between these recipes is in the composition of the ingredients and in the layout of the layers. And preparing it is not at all difficult!

We will need:

  • lightly salted red fish (I used salmon) – 150 g
  • surimi sticks (crab) – 250 gr
  • boiled egg – 6 pcs
  • walnuts or other – 100 gr
  • processed cheese – 160 – 200 g
  • Semerenko apple or other sweet and sour variety
  • red Crimean onion – 50 g (can be without it)
  • lemon juice – 1 tbsp. spoon
  • mayonnaise – 250 – 300 gr

For the marinade:

  • water – 2 tbsp. spoons
  • salt – 0.5 teaspoon
  • sugar – 1 teaspoon
  • vinegar 9% – 1 tbsp. spoon

For decoration we will use fresh herbs and red caviar.

Preparation:

You should start preparing in advance, because preparation takes a lot of time. And although there is no need to cook anything here, it still requires enough cleaning, cutting and arranging.

1. If you like salads with onions, you can use it here too. If you want to make the dish more tender, without the onion note of taste, then do not add it.

The onion can be cut into cubes or half rings and doused with boiling water, or pickled.


I cut it into very thin half rings and marinated it. Next time I will cut it into cubes so that it is not felt at all. And marinated it. After the onions have stood for 10 minutes, the marinade should be drained and the onions should be rinsed thoroughly. Try it, it should not be sour, this can ruin the whole taste.


3. Separate the whites from the yolks. Grind half the whites on a medium grater, and half on a fine grater. Mash the yolks with a fork.


4. Peel the apple and grate it on a coarse grater, pour in lemon juice and stir. Beat the nuts in a blender and grate the cheeses.


To make this easier, they should be kept in the freezer for 30 minutes.

5. Mix each of the components that are crushed and grated, except for small proteins and nuts, with a small amount of mayonnaise. Each of them is in its own bowl. There is no need to add a lot of sauce, otherwise the dish will turn out too rich.

6. Place a springform pan on a large dish and lay out the layers in a certain sequence.

  • processed cheese
  • grated apple, if it has released juice, squeeze it slightly, but do not pour it out
  • red fish
  • onion (here I would cut it into cubes)


  • crab sticks (pour apple juice on them)


  • yolks
  • nuts (this is the only layer we have without dressing so far)


  • egg whites with mayonnaise
  • whites without mayonnaise


7. Place the dish in the refrigerator directly in the ring. Let it brew and soak for two hours. Then carefully remove the form.

All that remains is to decorate our dish! To do this, we have parsley; we place its petals in the center. Fill the middle with red caviar. We also arrange individual eggs among the whites.

And along the edge of the plate we lay out short sprigs of dill. They symbolize the New Year tree for us.


Beauty can be served to the table and treated to guests.

Herring under a fur coat - with a new fur coat in the New Year

The next option is just as popular for preparing it for the festive New Year's table as the first! If you try to compare them, which is more popular, it won’t work! Neither one nor the other will yield the palm.

The classic preparation option provides the following composition of products:

  • herring - 2 pieces
  • potatoes - 5 pcs. (average)
  • carrots - 2 pcs. (large)
  • beets - 2 pcs. (large)
  • egg - 4 pcs.
  • mayonnaise - 250 ml. (approximately)
  • salt - to taste

Preparation:

Preparing “Herring under a fur coat” is also very simple.

1. Grate vegetables and eggs on a coarse grater.

2. Peel the herring from bones and skin, and cut into cubes.

3. Lay out in layers - beets, carrots, eggs, potatoes - herring - potatoes, eggs, carrots, beets.

4. Salt each layer to taste and layer with mayonnaise.


We decorate as your imagination dictates.

I have already posted a detailed description of the layers and photographs on the pages of the site. Therefore, I will not repeat myself.

And I would like to bring to your attention this interesting option.

New recipe for Herring under a fur coat in gelatin

We will need:

  • herring - 1 piece
  • salmon – 150 gr
  • egg - 5 pcs
  • beets -2 pcs.
  • carrots - 2 pcs.
  • gelatin - 20 g
  • water -0.5 cups
  • sour cream - 1 glass

Preparation:

1. Dissolve gelatin in water. Let stand until the gelatin swells, about 30 minutes.

2. Boil beets, carrots and eggs. Cool. And grate on a coarse grater.

3. Remove bones and skin from the herring. Cut into small cubes. Cut the lightly salted salmon a little larger so that the pieces are more noticeable. You can, of course, take two herrings instead of salmon. But it’s the New Year, so we don’t skimp and prepare a truly festive option.

4. Place the gelatin in a water bath and heat it thoroughly. You should get a homogeneous mixture without lumps. Do not bring the mixture to a boil under any circumstances; you just need to warm it up.

5. Mix gelatin with sour cream. They say that you can use mayonnaise instead of sour cream. But to be honest, I haven’t tried. The recipe with sour cream is also tasty, and not so high in calories.

Therefore, if one of you is not a fan of fatty foods at all, then sour cream will be just right.

6. Let’s prepare a suitable mold, it’s better to take a silicone one. It will be easy to get a chilled salad out of it. If you don’t have such a mold, then cover the mold with cling film. We begin to form our dish. Place a layer of salmon on the bottom, then herring. Layer with sour cream and gelatin.

7. Then the next layers are eggs, carrots and beets. Salt each layer and carefully layer it with a mixture of sour cream and gelatin.

8. Cover the top layer with cling film and place in the refrigerator until completely cooled.

9. Then cover the top with a large flat plate and turn it over. If there was a film at the bottom, remove it and serve “Herring under a Fur Coat” in all its glory.

10. Decorate with dill sprigs, pomegranate seeds and corn.


Isn’t it true that such a dish will be a real decoration of the festive table.

But I prepared this version this year, and instead of reading the recipe, you can watch the video. Both the one written and the one you will watch now are very similar.

Look how beautiful it looks. Do you know how tasty and beautiful it is in cut? Be sure to prepare it, you will definitely like it!!!

The recipe for the next cold dish is also with canned fish, only with tuna!

Video on how to prepare a New Year's treat with sprats in bowls

Mimosa can be served not only in its usual form on a large platter. You can serve it very beautifully in bowls.

The advantage of such a presentation is more than obvious. You won't cook too much. If you know how many guests you will have, you can prepare the same number of servings.

Such a salad will not lie on the platter as an unsightly, tousled mass. And everything will be neat and clean. Even if one of the guests doesn’t finish their portion, you simply remove the bowl from the table and that’s it.

But this is all, as they say, prose. The advantage of this option is that it is prepared somewhat unconventionally, namely with sprats. And this greatly changes the taste of the entire dish as a whole.

Try it, and maybe this option will become your favorite.

An original and new version of the Rose puff salad for your loved one

Don't look at the fact that the name is not New Year's at all. It is always a pleasure to receive roses from your loved one, be it in winter or in summer! Moreover, they are so beautiful!

It is similar to the previous one in that we prepare the same roses from freshly baked pancakes. To make the roses red, the cut pancakes will need to be dyed red using beet juice.

On my page I present light roses. But we are preparing it for the holiday, for the New Year. And that’s why we prepare it not quite usually, but rather with red roses. In this form it turns out very beautiful and elegant.

Although you can leave the traditional design. In the Year of the upcoming Yellow Pig, it will also be very appropriate.


There is one feature in this recipe that you cannot forget about if you decide to cook it. Originally it is made from chicken fillet. Therefore, we will prepare it unconventionally, replacing chicken with meat, or smoked sausage, or brisket. You can use boiled tongue, or even take a little bit of everything. The pig will definitely like this combination.

By the way, I’ve already tried cooking this option with meat, it turns out very tasty and no less tender!

Let's see what's in the composition?

We will need:

  • boiled breast 300-400 gr. (we unconditionally replace it with boiled or smoked meat)

  • boiled carrots 2 pieces (medium)
  • 2 pickled cucumbers
  • half a can of green peas
  • bunch of green onions
  • bunch of greenery
  • mayonnaise to taste

For pancakes:

We will need:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • salt on the tip of a knife
  • 1/3 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 100 ml. milk
  • 1 clove of garlic

As you can see, the composition of the products is also quite simple. And what a beauty it turns out! So take note of this option, especially if you have never prepared it!

There are so many different delicious beautiful dishes. But there are at least two more that it would be completely wrong not to include on today’s list. After all, these are the world-famous and beloved “Caesar” and “Greek”.

These two bright representatives of European cuisine break all records for their preparation. In addition, both of them are quite light, and I would even use the term elegant.

Without them, the New Year's table will not be complete. In addition, all previous options contain boiled ingredients. And in these two, almost all the ingredients are natural fresh products.

It is the shrimp that give a seemingly ordinary dish that very necessary festive zest. If you have never prepared this option, then be sure to prepare it. It is very light, low in calories and goes perfectly with any meat and fish dishes. In addition, it is bright in design and will not go unnoticed among your guests!


Therefore, if you want to prepare one or another option, go to the site page with a description of the recipe, where you will also find this recipe.
