With light nostalgia for the old days, when the sun was brighter, sugar is sweeter, the nights are shorter, the unbridled joy, the happiness without borders when "and bread crust and the half" when to wear the uniform was an honor, when I washed my first Lieutenant's shoulder straps... but with such reverent feelings, in anticipation of the long-awaited and favourite holiday "Day of defender of the Fatherland", offer a smile, and decorate Your holiday table with a joking variation on the popular snack. So at the festive table, we did not forget about the threat and the difficult everyday life of our brave, selfless, honest, fearless, and infinitely beloved defenders. Of course, I'm not going to teach You how to make "herring under a fur coat". That can do everything. I will only mention 1 time - I cut the onion finely and pour boiling water, add to taste vinegar, salt and sugar. After about 30 min. pickled onions ready and you can begin to assemble the gift sandwich. Take the black brick, cut the top crust and take out all the flesh /we're gonna need it/.

On the bottom, on a coarse grater three potatoes and put pickled onions.

And there's the herring arrived. It is, as always, finely mode and put to rest. Make mesh from mayonnaise.

Then grate the carrot, egg and mayonnaise again. Spread on top of beetroot salad /beetroot, garlic, lemon juice, mayonnaise/, decorate with the remaining herring, well, something else.

That's what I did.

Cover with a lid, tied a ribbon and "masculine" sandwich is ready.

The finished snack is necessary to keep in the fridge for a few hours, you can safely leave until the next day, then the stuffing is falling apart, and the bread it does not get wet. Layers to use is not necessary.

And here are the tarts! Crumb from our brick, 1 egg, 50 ml of vegetable oil, 0.5 tsp cumin, 0.5 tsp. cumin knead, put into molds, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake in the oven /170gr. - 15 min./ Cool and fill with the mousse /1 boiled beets grate on a fine grater, add sour cream, horseradish, salt, lemon juice /taste/ and whip. Side lay 2-3 slices of potatoes, quail egg /I never had/ a piece of fresh cucumber, green onion. You can buy up. In the days of my youth holidays often meet "on duty", but skip a glass still managed. Then the most common sandwich was "for happiness". Our men have the most popular snack was a black brick, cut male hand into generous chunks, onions and salt. I remember those times with aching sadness, warmth and laughter. Because youth, happiness and all ahead! With beautiful professional holiday to You our dear defenders and defender! And peace in the world!
