Are the tangerines, oranges, soup, feast etc, part if a folk ritual for bringing in the New Year or are they just doing it for the song? A well laden table is traditional for New Years. Breads, sour pickles, sliced (or whole) oranges and/or tangerines, caviar, fish, roast meat. Soup wouldn't be out of place. Apparently one of the favored salads is: Olivier Salad There really isn’t a food more synonymous with New Year than this sinfully rich salad. But the weird thing is that it isn’t actually salad. It’s more like a roast dinner chopped into minuscule pieces and then mixed all together. Inside you’ll find potatoes, carrots, peas, ham, pickles, eggs and a whole jar of mayo (literally) – you can also add small bits of apple to give it a sweet and sour bite! 10 portions Ingredients: 7 medium, boiled potatoes 5 boiled carrots 6 pickled cucumbers 1 can of green peas 6 boiled eggs (replace with tofu for plant-based version) 300 g of preferred cured or boiled meat (replace with vegan ham slices for plant-based version) 100 g sour cream 200 g mayonnaise Method: Finely chop all the boiled vegetables, eggs and meat into small cubes. Pour into a large bowl (or bucket!) and mix in all the other ingredients. Add salt to taste. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
