Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a delicious puff salad with smoked breast, pineapples and cheese? Very simple! First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. This is a standard recipe with a classic composition, but the ingredients can be supplemented or replaced to your liking. You can take store-bought mayonnaise or cook it yourself.
Step 2:
Peel the smoked breast from the skin and bones and cut into small cubes. You can replace the breast with meat from smoked hams.
Step 3:
Drain the liquid from the canned pineapples, dry them. If the pineapples are rings, then cut them into small pieces. It is advisable to squeeze the pineapples slightly so that the salad is not watery.
Step 4:
Grate the cheese on a coarse or medium grater. You can take any cheese that you like to taste.
Step 5:
Boil hard boiled eggs, cool and peel. Divide into whites and yolks. Grate the whites on a coarse grater or cut into small strips.
Step 6:
Grate the yolks on a fine grater. You can rub the yolks right away, but it's better to put them directly on the salad, then they will be more airy.
Step 7:
Wash the dill and parsley, dry and chop finely. In addition to dill and parsley, you can take other herbs - coriander, green onions or a mixture of different herbs.
Step 8:
You can just mix all the ingredients in a salad bowl, but I prefer to make a salad in a cooking ring so that all the layers are visible. A ring with a diameter of 14-16 cm will do. Put the smoked chicken in the first layer and pour mayonnaise over it. I put the mayonnaise in a pastry bag and cut off the tip. This is more convenient than using a spoon.
Step 9:
The next layer is canned pineapples. Pour mayonnaise over them too.
Step 10:
Next - grated proteins and mayonnaise.
Step 11:
Spread half of the chopped greens on the proteins. It does not need to be watered with mayonnaise.
Step 12:
Sprinkle grated cheese on top and make a mesh of mayonnaise.
Step 13:
Another layer - grated yolks. I immediately grated them on a grater over the cheese.
Step 14:
And the last layer is the remaining chopped greens. Put the salad in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours for impregnation.
Step 15:
Carefully remove the cooking ring before serving. On top, you can additionally decorate the salad to your liking. I made a flower out of a pineapple ring and slices of red onion. Enjoy your meal!
How to cook hard-boiled eggs? So that the eggs do not crack when cooking, put them in cold water and put them to cook on a small fire. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then pour cold water and cool. From a sharp temperature drop, the shell will be better cleaned.
