Cobb Salad
The American salad is original in taste and serving on the festive table. Salad is very easy to make, since the products used in it do not require special preparation. Except for the chicken and eggs, which need to be boiled beforehand (the chicken can be baked). Everything else just needs to be washed and cut. The recipe uses a very tasty and interesting dressing, which will serve as an excellent substitute for mayonnaise. The finished salad has a spicy, rich original taste with a variety of components. From the specified number of ingredients, a decent volume of the finished product is obtained - a complete large dish.

Recipe Notes

This salad holds a special place in American culinary history. Its origins date back to 1937 in California, specifically Hollywood. Bob Cobb, the owner of a renowned restaurant in the area, found himself famished one evening and ventured into the kitchen to rustle up a meal. He rummaged through the refrigerator and assembled a salad from the ingredients he found, dressing it generously. Bob then shared this impromptu creation with his friend Sid Grauman, a prominent Hollywood figure. Sid was impressed by the flavorful salad, and the next day, he requested it for dinner again. Recognizing its appeal, the Cobb salad was promptly added to the restaurant's menu. Since then, it has gained widespread recognition and is often considered a quintessential dish of American cuisine.
