When mentioning various salads from all over the world, it is impossible not to focus on dishes from the Soviet Union. In the cookbooks of the USSR, you can find many interesting names of various salads. However, most of them have not been cooked anywhere for a long time.
Probably the reason why people forget Soviet salads is the arrival of new dishes from Europe and Asia. Therefore, a large number of interesting dishes from the USSR seem banal to us.
