- This salad is so easy that even kids can make it. Here's how to put together the classic Chaika salad with cheese: 1) Hard-boil the eggs and cut them however you like; I cut them—and the onion—into half-rings, purely for looks. I often boil eggs ahead and keep them in the fridge for salads, snacks, or whenever someone wants a bite. 2) Add canned green peas to the bowl you're making the salad in—store-bought is fine, and homegrown works too. 3) Dice or grate the cheese. Don't be afraid to experiment with the cheese here; I've tried lots of kinds and loved them all. 4) Cut the onion. To take the bite out of it, rinse it in hot water or quick-pickle it for a few minutes (optional). For the pickle, I rinse the onion in cold water a few times, then add apple cider vinegar (or plain vinegar), a teaspoon of sugar, and a pinch of salt; it marinates while I cut everything else. Then I rinse it in hot water and add it straight to the salad. 5) Add the mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper if you like. Mix well. PS: If you're not eating the salad right away, dress it just before serving. Garnish with herbs—green onion, sprigs of dill or parsley—or, like I do, with grated cheese. The salad is ready! Enjoy, everyone. Cook with love.
