New Year's sandwich is a simple yet exquisite dish of Russian cuisine that brings festive cheer to any table. Its roots trace back to the traditions of preparing hearty and healthy snacks that combine the rich flavors of winter vegetables and rye bread. A toasted slice of black bread soaked in aromatic olive oil serves as the perfect base for a delicate combination of boiled egg, sweet beetroot, and vibrant carrot. The light spiciness of onion and a pinch of sea salt enhance the natural flavor tones, while mayonnaise adds creamy smoothness. A pickled cucumber as a garnish completes the composition with a refreshing tang. This dish is ideal for a cozy family dinner or New Year's feast when you want to enjoy the harmony of flavors and festive atmosphere.
