Notes: Olivier salad is a traditional dish used in New Year's celebration. It's preparation takes practice as it has to be served on a special occasion. It takes patience to prepare it but also the salad needs to be prepared in happy, inspirational mood. You have to carefully do each step. If the dish is prepared in angry mood and hasty manner it will come out with a sour taste.To give it any significance there has to be some excitement when serving the dish. As you are celebrating some special occasion. When Olivier is present at the dinner table it symbolizes the importance of that occasion. This mouthwatering salad is a signature dish in my memory from any significant moments at the dinner table. It brings back memories of past holidays and celebrations.
