You have mentioned the “Olivier salad” a few times over the years but I don’t think you have ever described it. What is it exactly?

“What is it exactly?”
In many countries it’s called “Russian salad” in Poland (which sometimes changes the name of dishes from Russian speaking lands to disguise the origin) it’s called vegetable salad or spring salad (or just salad)

Does the Russian version have celery root? The Polish version almost always does which makes it hard to make in the US (at least I’ve never seen it there).

No, we put in boiled potatoes, green peas, scallions, hardboiled eggs, bologna, apple, cucumbers, pickles and mix it up with mayonnaise and sour cream. It’s the worst possible thing one can eat health wise. 😆😆😆
