Step 1:
How to make the First Snow salad? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Boil the eggs over medium heat for 12 minutes and cool. This can be done by putting them under a stream of cold water, besides it will help to peel the shells easier. Wash and dry the grapes, remove the twigs.
Step 2:
Chicken fillet, I have chicken breast, boil in salted water until tender over medium heat. Remove the meat from the broth and put it in a plastic bag, leave it to cool. This will allow the boiled fillet to remain tender and not to wind up. If you boil the chicken fillet in advance, for example in the evening, it will take you no more than 15 minutes to prepare the salad.
Step 3:
Cut the cooled chicken fillet into small cubes and put it on the bottom of the plate, giving it a round shape. Never use ingredients in cold salads in a warm or hot form. The salad will spoil much faster.
Step 4:
Brush the chicken with mayonnaise on top. The easiest way to do this is with a pastry cornetik or a regular package, putting mayonnaise in one end and cutting off the tip.
Step 5:
Chop the walnuts finely and spread them on top of the chicken layer. If the nuts were bought by weight or markets, heat them in a frying pan or microwave oven to kill bacteria and microorganisms. After all, it is unknown where they were stored, and who picked them up.
Step 6:
Cover the nuts with mayonnaise.
Step 7:
Grate the hard cheese on a medium grater and spread it evenly on the top and sides of the salad. Press it a little to the surface with a dry spoon, then it will not stick.
Step 8:
Apply a thick layer of mayonnaise to the top and sides of the cheese.
Step 9:
Peel boiled eggs and divide into yolks and whites, chop the yolks and put an even layer on top of the salad.
Step 10:
Grease the top with mayonnaise, smearing over the entire surface of the salad.
Step 11:
Cut the black grapes in half and remove the seeds. Lay it on top of the salad in one layer. Arrange the remaining proteins on the sides of the salad. Of course, you can cover the sides with grated cheese, but it has a yellowish color.
Step 12:
Decorate the top with cheese snowflakes, cranberries and herbs.
Step 13:
Bon appetit!

It's better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
