Cod liver salad with vegetables is a refined dish of Russian cuisine that combines tenderness and richness of flavor. Cod liver, valued for its nutritional properties, gives the salad depth and a light oily texture. Crunchy fresh and pickled cucumbers add a refreshing tang, while fried onions contribute aromatic depth. Eggs provide softness and harmoniously bind the ingredients together, while tomatoes as a base make the dish light and appetizing. A slice of lemon accentuates the flavor, and green onions add fresh notes. This salad is perfect as a festive appetizer or everyday treat to share with loved ones.
