Among the many varied snacks, one of the least known is the Addict Salad. Perhaps the housewives instinctively avoid the dish because of its name. Meanwhile, there is nothing narcotic in the salad. And they nicknamed him so offensively solely due to the presence in the list of ingredients of the culinary poppy. But nobody avoids rolls and pies with him! We will restore justice, we will reject prejudices and we will prepare a tasty and uncomplicated snack.
Recipe salad "Addict"
First, pickle a couple of onions, chopped in half rings, in a solution of vinegar. After 5-10 minutes, add salt and let the vegetable dry.
Now take the ham, cut it into straws of medium thickness and put on a dish. Place onion on top, on it - circles of tomatoes. We coat this layer with mayonnaise, but not too profusely. Top with croutons from the bag, preferably with the taste of bacon or ham. Now apply mayonnaise generously, and sprinkle with poppy seeds on top.
Addict Salad can be placed in the refrigerator so that the sauce penetrates into the lower layers. But not for long, so that croutons do not get sour. The poppy flavor makes the snack original, causing nostalgia for childhood with grandmother's buns and at the same time allowing you to feel quite adult - if the salad is used for degree drinks.
Fantasies on the subject
Salad "Addict" is also called "Joy", "Delight" or "Dream." At the same time, some components change, but crackers and poppy seeds are necessarily involved in the dish.
Variation No. 1: instead of ham - fried pork, instead of tomatoes - Korean carrot, onions are not pickled, but fried, layering is not respected, the salad needs mixing.
Variation No. 2: chicken (ideally smoked) becomes the meat component, crackers are taken with chicken taste, poppy seeds are sprinkled on tomatoes, and the salad is covered with grated cheese on top.
In principle, all modifications are worthy of attention. So let's build a reputation for an undeservedly ignored salad.
