What can replace saury in a salad?

As already noted above, saury can be safely replaced with other canned fish in the salad under discussion. It is best to choose a sardine or sardinella for this. From this, the taste of the finished snack will not change at all. For example, sardine is somewhat drier than canned saury, but this can be easily corrected by adding a little oil from the can to the fish mass.

In addition to these canned foods, it is allowed to take some other types. For example, pink salmon, salmon or pollock. True, such a replacement will significantly affect the result. The appetizer will turn out to be no less tasty, but completely unlike the traditional “Mimosa”. But, in this way, you can diversify the usual assortment of festive dishes and surprise guests with a new relish.

The sequence of layers in Mimosa

The salad under discussion is always laid out in layers. It is difficult to say which sequence is the only true one. Usually the hostess determines this empirically.

 

Most often, the first layer of snacks becomes grated potatoes, cheese. Mashed fish is laid out on the main layer. Next, other used vegetables and eggs alternate. It is very important that the egg becomes the last layer. Thanks to the yolks as a salad decoration, it got its name. After all, the finely grated egg core is associated with balls of a bright spring flower.
