Over the long history of its existence, olivier potato salad has become a traditional salad on the festive table. A familiar combination of ingredients always inspires a New Year's mood on winter holidays. What is the classical potato salad recipe: the one according to which it was prepared by Lucien Olivier at the Hermitage restaurant in Moscow or the Soviet recipe with sausage and canned green peas? I believe both versions are right. Today I decided to remind you of the Russian olivier recipe with sausage to remember the taste of childhood. For the recipe, it is best to use high-quality doctor sausage without fat and canned green peas. Often I use pickled cucumbers of my own making to make salads, they are very tasty, juicy and crispy.
