Salad with egg pancakes is an original dish of Russian cuisine that combines the softness of egg pancakes, the tenderness of ham, and the freshness of cucumbers. Its history is linked to home cooking where housewives experimented with simple ingredients to create unusual combinations. Thin egg pancakes cut into noodles add lightness to the salad, while a dressing made of mayonnaise, sour cream, and soy sauce adds a spicy note. Crunchy fried peanuts complete the flavor composition by adding texture contrast. The salad is perfect as a standalone dish or as an accompaniment to meat and vegetable side dishes. It is great for festive gatherings and cozy family dinners, delighting with its unusual presentation and rich taste.
