This recipe uses Ukrainian ingredients and showcases the rich flavours of the classic Russian appetiser ‘under a fur coat’, complementing them with salmon.
Variations

Secrets of tenderness and taste

Tips on ingredients
- Choose lightly salted or smoked-cooked salmon for richer flavours.
- Buy high-quality herring from trusted suppliers to avoid excessive saltiness.
- Use yellow, non-starchy potatoes so that they do not fall apart when sliced.
- Boil the eggs for 10 minutes to get a firm yolk.
Small culinary nuances
- The dish is best after several hours of cooling.
- Serve on lettuce or cabbage leaves for an aesthetic look.
- Garnish with fresh herbs, such as dill, before serving.
