AUTHENTIC RUSSIAN SALAD 'OLIVYE'



Authentic Russian Salad 'Olivye' image

This is a recipe my mom and grandmother use every time there's a family gathering or a special occasion. To make this a vegetarian dish just leave out the ham. Potatoes, carrots, and eggs do not have to be chilled completely after boiling. Dill can be substituted for parsley if desired.

RUSSIAN CARROT SALAD (KOREAN-STYLE)



Russian Carrot Salad (Korean-Style) image

Russians call it 'Korean Carrot Salad,' but it is so absolutely ubiquitous in Russia that if they didn't originally own it, they certainly do now. Coriander provides primary flavor; cayenne provides the heat. To get it right, you MUST use a mandoline to julienne the carrots into long, thin strands like spaghetti. To save time, buy them already julienned at the grocery store. This dish is best after it has marinated for 24 hours, but is fine after only 4 or 5 hours.

RUSSIAN CARROT SALAD - KOREISKAYA MORKOVKA



Russian Carrot Salad - Koreiskaya Morkovka image

This carrot salad is very popular in the Russian cuisine. The crunchy grated carrots are dressed with oil from caramelized onions and seasoned with coriander and garlic.

Provided by Olga's Flavor Factory

Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs carrots, peeled and grated on a fine julienne grater or mandolin
1 lb onions, sliced into half circles
1 cup oil (avocado, sunflower, etc.)
salt, ground black pepper, to taste
1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
4-6 garlic cloves, minced
fresh herbs, to garnish (parsley or cilantro)

Steps:

  • Grate the carrots on a fine julienne grater.
  • Slice the onions into half circles. Heat the oil in a large skillet and add the onions. Season with salt to taste. Cook on medium low heat for 7-10 minutes, until the onions are golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, season the carrots with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Add the sugar, ground coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper and mix to combine.
  • Finely mince or press the garlic cloves through a garlic press and place in the bottom of a large bowl. When the onions are cooked, strain the onions through a fine mesh sieve, pouring the hot oil right over the garlic. You can choose to strain out the garlic as well or even add the garlic to the onions during the last 30 seconds of cooking if you want the garlic to have a much more mild flavor in the salad. The other option is to add in the garlic along with the oil to the carrot salad, mixing all the ingredients to combine. The cooked onions will not be used in the salad. Add them to other recipes.
  • Store the carrot salad in the refrigerator. You can serve the salad right away, but for the best results, marinate the salad in the refrigerator at least for a few hours or overnight before serving.
  • Mix to combine again before serving the salad. Garnish with fresh herbs.
  • Store the salad in the refrigerator for up to a week.

RUSSIAN SALAD



Russian Salad image

Basically a vegetable-studded potato salad with mayonnaise, Russian salad is hugely popular all over the world for family gatherings and festive events. It's a beloved, traditional party dish riffed on almost everywhere but my own home: I'd only ever seen pasty, congealed versions I would never wish to eat until I tried this one from Vladimir Ocokoljic, served at his Serbian restaurant Kafana in New York City. While not quite as demanding as his aunt back in Belgrade, who used to slice even the peas in half, Mr. Ocokoljic insists on the tiny dice (each ingredient should match the size of a pea) and emphatically dislikes any sweet pickles (only gherkins or cornichons are a fit), making the finished dish delicate, luscious and savory. Whisking pickle brine into the mayonnaise creates a liquidy slurry, loose enough to dress the salad without its becoming smushed and gluey.

Time 1h

Yield 6 1/2 cups (about 12 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and black pepper
3 medium yellow potatoes (about 1 pound), washed
5 thin carrots (about 1/2 pound), washed
10 ounces frozen peas
4 large eggs, fridge-cold
3 1/2 ounces boiled ham
1 cup drained cornichons and 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of their brine
1 scant cup Hellmann's mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Season with salt.
  • Add whole potatoes to the boiling water, and cook 15 minutes. Add whole carrots to the cooking potatoes, and cook both another 10 minutes. Remove potatoes and carrots with a spider when easily pierced with a cake tester or a very thin knife blade, and set aside in a bowl.
  • Add frozen peas to boiling water, and using the spider, remove them to a separate bowl as they float, until all peas have floated and been transferred to the bowl.
  • Gently add the eggs, and allow to boil 10 minutes.
  • While the eggs cook, peel the potatoes and carrots under cold running water by rubbing them gently with your fingers. Rinse the peas under cold running water to cool.
  • Once the eggs are cooked, drain them, and peel under cold running water.
  • Neatly dice the potatoes, carrots, ham, eggs and cornichons to the same approximate (and rather small) size as the peas, aiming for uniformity. Gently toss them all together in a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise with the cornichon brine, and pour over the salad. Toss gently with rubber spatula or using your fingers until the salad is well coated. Season with several hearty grinds of black pepper.
  • Refrigerate overnight, and serve cold.

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large carrots
3 cloves of garlic
2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sugar
Half a cup of roasted almonds

Steps:

  • Peel/clean your carrots, then grate them. Preferably, they should be grated lengthwise to make longer strands. Mince the garlic cloves finely. Slice the roasted almonds lengthwise. Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Variables - sugar quantity can be adjusted, or sugar can be replaced with dried fruit such as dried cranberries or raisins. Some vinegar or lemon juice can also be added (perhaps one tea spoon) in order to cut the creaminess of the salad and add some zest. If you like heat, add a teaspoon of crushed red pepper.
