Options for preparing budget salads
Try to change the most habitual recipes for cheap New Year's salads, because who, if not you, is well versed in the tastes of households and friends ?!
Vinaigrette in a new way
For example, otherwise make a vinaigrette.
Instead of cucumbers, add sauerkraut, and do not boil the beets themselves, but stew them with carrots, cauliflower cubes and a small amount of finely chopped onions.
Celery cubes can also go there (half less than beets and carrots). You won’t want to add potatoes to such a vinaigrette, but boiled beans or sunflower seeds will come in handy in it. Eventually - new taste, a mystery of ingredients and no grand spending!
Inexpensive salad with crab sticks
Look for fresh options with crab sticks. To do this, focus on them by removing other “heavy” components from the recipes - potatoes, eggs and meat.
One of the juiciest and cheapest options for New Year's crab salad:
- finely grated white cabbage
- apple and orange, chopped into thin strips,
- canned corn,
- crab sticks, not very finely chopped.
Dressing = mayonnaise + be sure to pepper. You will need a grater "Berner".
Simple and cheap sauerkraut salads
Everyone's favorite comes to the rescue sour cabbage. It is easy to bring it up to a festive level if you add an apple (thin straw), a little corn and coarsely chopped nuts.
At the same time season with fragrant vegetable oil. An excellent combination of flavors will also turn out if raisins, prunes, dried apricots are added to the cabbage. Note that expensive ingredients are in small quantities!
And if you remember the recipes of our grandmothers, then the 3 cheapest components (sauerkraut, boiled potatoes and onions) are an excellent base for a delicious winter salad who will not shame New Year's table, if offered to a rich meat hot - akin to baked chops or chicken legs.
This is another approach to choosing inexpensive salads for the new year: saving on accompaniment to good and often expensive meat, we do not lose the general mood of the meal - how generous and rich!
Salads are simple and tasty - easy. It is enough to look in the refrigerator or rummage around kitchen shelves, and there are sure to be ingredients from which you can prepare simple and tasty salads that will decorate your table at any time.
However, to prepare salads simple and tasty, there are a few rules. Vegetables for salads are cut in approximately the same pieces: large (slices, circles) or small (cubes, straws). If you mix large slices of tomatoes with cucumbers, cut into small cubes, then the taste of tomatoes will prevail in the salad, and the cucumbers will simply “get lost”. In addition, salads in the same cut look more neat, natural and appetizing.
Greens are added to the salad last, and it must be chopped finely. Or, conversely, tear the leaves with your hands, this primarily applies to leafy salads. As for the dressing, the rules are generally to just mix the vegetables together, and not salt or oil them. And when serving, put on the table vinegar, vegetable oil, salt, pepper, or specially prepared dressings or sauces, so that everyone can season their portion of the salad as they like.
