Such a fairly simple to prepare, but very bright and beautiful salad is the Mushroom Glade salad. Today we will cook it with pickled mushrooms. This recipe was provided to us by my relative, Ruzanna, who is an excellent cook and loves to welcome guests and prepare luxurious tables for them. I already have one recipe for a layered salad “Mushroom Glade” on my website, but we prepared it with other mushrooms, marinated with small champignons. Here the salad is prepared a little differently. So, let's get started.

Step-by-step video recipe

Required:

• Boiled potatoes - 2-3 pcs.
• Boiled eggs - 3-4 pcs.

• Pickled cucumbers - 2-3 pcs.
• Boiled carrots - 2-3 pcs.
• Pickled mushrooms - we have honey mushrooms - 1 b. (250 gr.)

How to prepare a delicious layered salad “Mushroom Glade” with honey mushrooms:

As the first layer, you need to place boiled potatoes grated on a coarse grater in a deep salad bowl. Spread mayonnaise on top.

The second layer is grated eggs on a coarse grater. Mayonnaise on top.

The third layer is hard cheese grated on a coarse or fine grater. Mayonnaise.

The fourth layer is to chop the smoked chicken breast. Grease with mayonnaise. Here you can use boiled chicken breast fillet or fry the breast in a frying pan, and then chop it and add it to the salad. It's up to you. The option with smoked chicken breast is very tasty and wonderful.

Fifth layer - chop the pickles, squeeze a little with your hands and place evenly on the chicken. There is no need to add mayonnaise here.

Sixth layer - grate the boiled carrots on a coarse grater and place in an even layer. Grease with mayonnaise.

The seventh layer is to sprinkle the carrots with finely chopped green onions.

The eighth layer is to place pickled mushrooms, namely honey mushrooms, on top of the fresh herbs.

The salad needs to be sent to a cool place or in the refrigerator so that it is nourished and becomes even tastier. We will serve the salad in a common salad bowl, although such salads are usually made the other way around, placing the first layer of mushrooms - greens - carrots - pickled cucumbers - chicken breast - cheese - eggs - potatoes, in a greased salad bowl with vegetable oil (so that the salad then comes away from the walls perfectly), and then, when it’s time to serve the salad, they simply lay it out, inverting it onto a large flat platter. Thus, the mushroom glade salad, or as it is also called - Deadly Number, is a upside-down salad. In this case, Ruzanna prepared her salad by placing all the vegetables on the bottom and garnishing it with pickled mushrooms on top. This option also exists.

This is most conveniently done using a special ring for forming salads, but you can get by with a regular spoon. Place the champignons on top of the appetizer, covering the entire surface with them. Additionally, you can decorate the appetizer with parsley. After this, the dish is ready to serve.

Salad Lesnaya Polyana with honey mushrooms

Unlike the previous salad, this version uses not champignons, but real forest mushrooms - honey mushrooms. The original recipe uses pickled mushrooms, but you can also use salted ones. The dish will not lose at all from this. And one more nuance. This version of Lesnaya Polyana “loves” a large amount of mayonnaise. This is worth keeping in mind for people watching their figure.

Place potatoes on a flat-bottomed plate, add salt and pepper. Place a layer of pickled cucumbers on top. Place slices of meat on them, which also need to be salted, seasoned with pepper and greased with mayonnaise. Next, lay out boiled eggs, slices of fresh cucumbers and finely grated cheese. Grease the top and sides of the salad with mayonnaise. Place pickled mushrooms in random order on the very top and garnish with herbs.

Forest Glade salad with Korean carrots

Line a small saucepan with straight sides with cling film and you can begin laying out layers of Forest Glade. Just a piece of advice, to make the salad look more impressive, the layers should be laid out as densely as possible, and the sequence of laying out is as follows:

• whole mushrooms with caps down;

In this form, the Forest Glade can already be taken out for testing to household members or guests.

Lesnaya Polyana salad, recipe with ham

Lesnaya Polyana salad with ham also has an excellent taste. In its composition, it is in many ways reminiscent of the modern interpretation of Olivier, but additional ingredients make this type of snack much more refined.

To assemble the salad, it is advisable to use a special molding ring. But if it is not there, then you can carefully form layers with a spoon. Place potatoes as the bottom layer and generously coat with mayonnaise. Then a mixture of green peas and onions is laid out, and on them a layer of pickled cucumbers, which are also smeared with mayonnaise. The next layers are carrots and ham. The meat ingredient should also be coated with sauce and sprinkled with walnuts ground in a coffee grinder. Now you need to put a layer of eggs and sprinkle them with grated cheese. Pour mayonnaise over the top and level. All that remains is to sprinkle the entire surface with chopped dill, and place the mushrooms on it, caps up.

Boil the potatoes in their skins, as well as the eggs and cool. Grate the cucumber on a Korean carrot grater or cut into thin strips.

When all the products are properly prepared, you need to take a large dome-shaped salad bowl, cover it with cling film and lightly grease it with oil. After this, you can begin assembly. The salad should be laid out in the following order:
