Cracker and sauce are added just before serving the dish, so that the first crunches, and the second does not let it get too wet. You can additionally decorate it with greens and slices of tomatoes.

Canned variant

This recipe turns out not just a salad with canned food and crackers, but a real hearty cake. The calorie content of such a dish is approximately 600-650 kilocalories. Therefore, this option is definitely not suitable for those who are on a diet. In addition, those who have intestinal problems should also refrain from such an exquisite, but fatty and heavy dish.

What you need

Salad with canned food and crackers is usually made from canned fish. It will take only one jar of pink salmon or saury. Any fish you like will do. Crackers are better to take with herbs and s alt, not too small. The shape depends on the container in which the salad with cookies will be collected. A cracker can be square, rectangular, or round. In addition, you will need hard cheese, greens, boiled chicken eggs and garlic. And, of course, mayonnaise or sauce. For example, tar-tar, garlic, cheese, for dumplings. You can cook them yourself or take ready-made industrial ones. But sour cream is not needed here, because it is too bland and greasy.

How to collect

The recipe is striking in its simplicity andgenius at the same time. The liquid is drained from the canned food so that the salad is not too wet. Mash the fish with a fork until smooth. It is very important to choose those canned foods that contain practically no seeds, otherwise you can accidentally choke. Eggs are divided into whites and yolks. The first are rubbed on a fine grater, then mixed with sauce or mayonnaise. The yolks are crushed with a fork or chopped with a knife. The cheese is rubbed on a very fine grater. Garlic is crushed, mixed with yolks. They also add grated cheese. Cookies are laid out at the bottom of the container-form, canned food is placed on top of it. They are smeared with proteins with sauce, sprinkled with herbs. All this is abundantly sprinkled with cheese with yolks and garlic. When the cracker salad is infused (about 20-30 minutes, longer if possible), it is removed from the mold and laid out on a large flat plate. So it turns out an unusual hearty cake.

Mini salads

This option is very good for a party where appetizers are in high demand. Cracker salad, the recipe of which will be described, is more like a canape or a mini sandwich. It is pleasant to eat, and it looks unusual. At the same time, it remains a salad, and not just an appetizer.

What you need

Definitely need a cracker (round, not sweet). It is good if it is with cheese or s alt, with herbs or seasonings. But "beginning" cookies can be different. The most popular options are canned fish and eggs. The latter are first boiled, then crushed with a fork. They add a drop of oil from canned food. The fish is also small wrinkled. All ingredients are mixed, then laid out on cookies. As an addition, a sprig of greenery may be required.

Cucumber stuffing

This option is quite refreshing and enjoyable. You need to boil the rice so that it easily rolls into balls, and does not spread like porridge. To do this, you can add a little rice vinegar, which is usually added when preparing sushi and rolls. You will also need a fresh cucumber, herbs and a little melted cheese. Crackers are better to take s alty round shapes. They are easier to put in your mouth. The rice is rolled into balls, adding a little melted cheese so that it is inside and not outside. Greens finely chopped. Sprinkled with rice balls. Then they are laid out on cookies, lightly pressed so that the form is flattened. The cucumber is cut into thin slices. They are placed on top of rice balls. It turns out an unusual portioned salad with a cracker, which can be served on the table during a gala event or just for dinner.

Is it appropriate to cook meat

Sometimes canned fish is replaced with meat. This is purely a matter of taste, so it is impossible to say unequivocally whether it is necessary to do so. For example, pork stew, heated and chopped, is well suited for a salad cake recipe. At the same time, the rest of the ingredients do not need to be changed. You can even add more garlic to spice up the dish. From canned fish, by the way, sprats in tomato sauce, cod liver, and even sprats in pieces are not bad. The main thing is to knead well with a fork to form a homogeneous mass.
