Potato salad with lemon balm is an exquisite combination of simple ingredients that creates a delicate and refreshing taste. Potatoes infused with the aroma of fresh lemon balm acquire a subtle citrus note, while the sour cream dressing adds softness and lightness. Green onions enhance the freshness of the dish, and sprats caviar gives a slight salty piquancy. This salad is a magnificent addition to a summer table, ideal as a side dish for fish or meat. Rooted in Russian traditions, it reminds us of the simplicity of rustic cuisine where freshness and naturalness of ingredients were paramount values. The pleasant balance of flavors makes it an excellent choice for both everyday and festive dinners.
