Despite the fact that today you will not be surprised at the abundance of fresh vegetables, herbs and fruits on the shelves at any time of the year, the appearance on our tables of a simple but delicious salad of radishes always symbolizes the arrival of spring. What can I say, is it possible to compare the taste of a young, freshly picked from a garden of radish with the taste of an overseas, albeit beautifully packaged in an attractive container of vegetables. I must say that this root crop has a lot of all kinds of positive advantages. Its crisp juicy pulp contains a fairly large amount of mineral salts, pectin, fiber and a lot of iron, which, as you know, raises the level of hemoglobin in the blood. It also contains vitamins - PP, B1, B2, C. By the way, by the amount of the latter, a bunch of radishes is comparable to half a lemon, ten plums and three tomatoes. Here is such a useful vegetable, which is good in salad as an appetizer, and as a side dish for meat dishes, and just served to the table in its entirety. We’ll talk about a classic that has become a dish such as
radish and egg
salad . And also try to diversify the food a little by adding various ingredients. By the way, to cook it, you don’t need any special culinary skills. So, how to make a salad of radishes and eggs?
You will need the following ingredients:
- a bunch of radishes;
- 3-4 hard-boiled eggs;
- 200 grams of fat sour cream;
- green onions;
- salt.
By the way, some useful information that is useful to someone for whom a salad of radishes and eggs is a culinary debut. The main thing is to choose the right vegetable. Tops must always have a fresh look, and only firm radish will be tasty and juicy. If you plan to cut the vegetable into circles or cubes, then it is better to take a small radish, if you rub it on a grater - large. But back to how to make a salad of radishes and eggs. To do this, it is necessary to free the vegetable from the tops, wash, chop (optionally), add chopped green onions and eggs, salt and season with sour cream. If someone is worried about their figure, then you can make dressing from low-fat yogurt. True, because of this, a salad of radishes and eggs will become less tasty, but not so high-calorie.
And now a few words about how and how to diversify this dish. After all, radish with eggs is not the only combination, and not only sour cream or yogurt are used as dressing. So, adding cucumbers to our classic salad, you can get a dish with a completely different taste. Green salad, dill, parsley, cauliflower will not spoil it. There are even quite a few recipes, according to which radishes can be crushed into a salad with tops. However, in the end I would like to offer a recipe created specifically for the male half, whose stomach, as you know, still prefers not meat, but grass.
So, a salad of radishes and eggs, but with the addition of more substantial ingredients. In addition to 300 grams of radish, three eggs and green onions you will need:
- 300 g cooked sausages (or sausages);
- packaging of crab sticks;
- boiled potatoes (3 pieces);
- a couple of cucumbers;
- a can of sweet corn;
- mayonnaise.
All components must be finely chopped, combined in a salad bowl with canned corn, a little salt, seasoned with mayonnaise. Fast, tasty, satisfying.
