Description
Ensalada rusa – Russian salad – can be ordered in virtually any diner in Catalonia. This very popular salad with artichokes, anchovies and olives somehow got the name "Russian". Perhaps someone tried to play our ubiquitous "Olivier" and created this version, which by the way can be a good replacement for this usual Christmas dish. The salad was delicious and versions of it a lot, so let's called Russian.
