Pork salad with radish and onion is a dish of Russian cuisine that harmoniously combines the rich taste of meat, the spiciness of radish, and the aroma of fried onions. Historically, such salads were popular among peasants as the ingredients are easily accessible and nutritious. Pork adds heartiness to the dish, radish provides fresh sharpness, and oil-fried onion adds softness and depth of flavor. Dressed with mayonnaise, the salad becomes tender and rich. It is perfect as a standalone dish or a side to a main meal. The best flavor develops after several hours of soaking, making it convenient for preparation in advance.
