Instructions
- Thoroughly rinse the potatoes and carrots under running water using a brush. Cook the vegetables over moderate heat until they become tender. To check their readiness, insert a knife into the vegetables—if they are soft, they are ready. Remove the vegetables from the water and let them cool completely. Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes.
- Wash the eggs, ensuring they are clean as the seemingly pristine shell may harbor harmful bacteria. Boil the eggs using the following method: to prevent cracking, place them in cold water and set over low heat. Boil the eggs for 7 minutes after reaching a boil, then transfer them to cold water to cool. This method makes it easier to peel the eggs. Peel the eggs and cut them into cubes.
Recipe Notes
For a more delectable and healthier option, it is recommended to craft your own mayonnaise.
As an alternative dressing, consider using sour cream or natural yogurt. These can be utilized independently or combined with mayonnaise in varying proportions to suit your taste, providing a means to reduce the dish's overall calorie content.
To enhance the visual appeal of the salad, ensure uniformity in the size and shape of the ingredients, such as cutting them into uniform cubes.
Exercise caution by preparing the salad exclusively from thoroughly chilled ingredients. The use of warm components may hasten the deterioration of the salad.
