Boil potatoes and eggs, cool and clean. Mackerel or salted herring peel and cut into cubes.

Onion peel, finely chop and pickle. For the marinade boil water with sugar and salt. Remove from heat, pour 2 tablespoons of vinegar (I have Apple). The marinade pour in the onions, cover with a plate and leave until cool. When cool, fold-out pickled onions in a sieve and give all the liquid to drain.

Because I wanted to make a salad in the form of snow Maiden, it was necessary to "coat" painted in blue. This can be done by using red cabbage juice. I had small forks, I squeezed the juice using a juicer. Separate the whites from the yolks. Proteins grate on a small grater and to paint the cabbage juice. Potatoes to grate on a coarse grater.

Begin to collect a salad. Each layer will be spread mayonnaise. The first layer — grated potatoes, mayonnaise. The second layer — mackerel, mayonnaise.

Third layer — pickled onions, mayonnaise. The fourth layer — grated on a coarse grater Apple (I sprinkle more chopped walnuts, I love him very much in the salad, you can omit), mayonnaise.

Fifth layer — grated on a fine grater cheese (my Dutch), mayonnaise. Sixth layer — grated on a fine grater yolk, mayonnaise.

We begin to make the salad in the form of snow Maiden. For the face I cut out cheese from platinum circle. Eye used 2 pea black pepper. Eyes, lips and blusher with a brush painted using gel food coloring. Coat — painted chicken proteins. Spit — Suluguni cheese in the form of braids. And the finishing touch to the coat — grated on a fine grater cheese. Initially, the protein was blue, but I really did not like the odor of cabbage juice, I added a little lemon juice in the end a coat of a different color, but odorless.

A little witchcraft, and a salad in the form of the snow Maiden can be submitted to the festive table.

Last year I prepared the salad "Santa Claus" - the recipe is on the site, so the exhibit will not. And this year I decided, as Santa Claus without mnocence Maiden?! And here's a "sweet" couple can decorate your festive Christmas table.
