    1. How do you make Mimosa salad without potatoes, with butter? I like to assemble salads with everything prepped ahead, and I'd suggest the same:
    • put the butter in the freezer so it grates more easily;
    • hard-boil the eggs, cool and peel them, separate the whites from the yolks, and grate each into its own bowl;
    • peel and finely chop the onion, put it in a bowl, cover with ice water, and let it sit for 10 minutes (I like crisp onion — if you prefer it milder, pour boiling water over it instead), then spread it on a paper towel to draw off the extra moisture;
    • grate the hard cheese;
    • drain the liquid from the canned fish (but not all of it, so the fish doesn't dry out) and mash it with a fork into a more or less smooth paste.
    1. With everything prepped, all that's left is to layer the salad (the butter is the only thing you don't prep ahead, or it would melt). Set a ring mold on a flat plate and build it up: egg whites — mayonnaise — grated cheese — canned fish — mayonnaise — onion — butter — egg yolks. Garnish with fresh dill.
  • Bring the Mimosa to the table and treat your guests!
  • Enjoy!
  • It's better to make your own mayonnaise — tastier and better for you. See some great homemade mayonnaise recipes here. You can also dress the salad with sour cream or plain yogurt instead of mayo, on their own or blended with mayonnaise in any ratio you like — that lightens the dish.
  • How do you hard-boil eggs? To keep them from cracking, put them in cold water and bring them up over low heat. Boil for 9 minutes from when the water starts boiling, then plunge them into cold water to cool. The sudden temperature change makes them peel more easily.
