Pumpkin salad with apples is a harmony of freshness and sweetness reminiscent of warm autumn days. This recipe has roots in Russian cuisine, where pumpkin was traditionally used as a nutritious and versatile product. The tender, slightly crunchy texture of young pumpkin pairs perfectly with juicy apples, creating a refreshing taste. Lemon juice adds a light tanginess, while honey softens and highlights the fruity notes. Nuts give the dish richness and a pleasant crunch. This salad can be served as a light appetizer or side dish to main courses. It is ideal for those who appreciate natural products and strive for healthy eating.
