How to prepare Monomakh's Hat salad

There are several options for preparing the salad. The set of products for them may be different, but each of them is laid in layers and, when decorated, assembled in the shape of Monomakh’s cap.

When choosing ingredients, you can focus on your own taste preferences. The main component can be meat, chicken, fish, as well as eggs and pomegranate seeds, boiled vegetables: potatoes, carrots, beets.

Options for decorating the Monomakh's Hat salad

Modern housewives come to the aid of various kitchen appliances: vegetable cutters, food processors. Therefore, the process of creating a culinary masterpiece takes 1-2 hours.

When decorating a dish, the aesthetic component is important. It goes through several stages:

1. Construction of the dome. Egg whites are placed on top of the main layers. Sprinkle cheese on top and coat with mayonnaise dressing.
2. The top is “strewn” with paths of pomegranate and peas. They symbolize the gems that are on the real Monomakh's hat.

Boil the meat until soft, cool and cut into small cubes or thin strips. Boil potatoes in their skins, drain the water, cool, peel and grate. Boil the beets until soft or bake in the oven (wrap in foil and bake at 180°C for about an hour), cool, peel and grate. Wash the raw carrots, peel and grate on a fine grater. Boil the eggs, quickly transfer to cold water, cool and peel. Chop the egg yolks with a knife, grate the whites on a fine grater and place in different bowls. Grate the cheese on a fine grater. Grind the walnuts in a blender or chop with a knife. Wash the greens, dry and finely chop. Peel the garlic and pass through a garlic squeezer.

The salad is laid out on a dish in layers. Each ingredient can be mixed separately with a small amount of mayonnaise and, if necessary, salt and pepper. Or pour mayonnaise over each layer of salad as you place it on the dish.

1st layer:

half a potato + salt + mayonnaise + freshly ground pepper

2nd layer:

beets + salt + mayonnaise + a little garlic + walnuts

3rd layer:

grated cheese

4th layer:

half the meat + salt (if necessary) + mayonnaise + freshly ground pepper

5th layer:

chopped greens

6th layer:

egg yolks + salt + a little mayonnaise + freshly ground pepper

7th layer:

carrots + salt + mayonnaise + a little garlic + freshly ground pepper
8th layer:
walnuts + grated cheese

9th layer:

remaining meat + salt (if necessary) + mayonnaise + freshly ground pepper + walnuts + remaining herbs

Cover the salad with the remaining potatoes (mixed with mayonnaise), forming a mound and trying to ensure that the potatoes hide all the different colors of the filling.

Using hands moistened with water, shape the salad into a hat.

Cover the salad with a thin layer of mayonnaise. The top of the cap can be covered with finely grated protein (or just leave a layer of mayonnaise). Make a edging for the hat using the remaining protein and grated cheese. Sprinkle the edge with the remaining chopped walnuts, imitating fur. Decorate the hat with pomegranate seeds and green peas. Cover the salad dish with cling film, put it in the refrigerator and let it brew overnight. Before serving, remove the cling film. Top the top of the hat with a crown of red onion filled with pomegranate seeds.

Salad "Monomakh's Hat"

I have been eyeing this beautiful salad for a long time to prepare for some family holiday - I am always attracted to beautifully decorated dishes. The name of the salad is colorful, although it only hints at the decoration, which is shaped like the main regalia of the Russian tsars. Ingredients:

500 g of boiled meat (I have chicken), 3 potatoes, 2 medium carrots, 5 eggs (the white of one for decoration), 100-150 g of walnuts, 150 g of cheese, pomegranate seeds and green peas for decoration, mayonnaise.

At first glance, it seems that the recipe should be complicated, however, in reality, preparing such a salad is easier than you think. First, cook the necessary ingredients: meat (you can use any kind), potatoes, carrots and eggs. After everything has cooled, we peel the vegetables and eggs, and in general it would be good to keep the meat in the refrigerator for neat cutting. After that, on a coarse grater, put potatoes, carrots, 100 g of cheese, and eggs on different plates. Cut one egg into cloves in the middle, the yolk will go into the salad, and leave the white for decoration. Lightly toast the nuts, peel off the film, and grate them on a fine grater. Cut the meat into small cubes. The salad will be layered, but for ease of assembly, it is better to mix all the products, except nuts, with a small amount of mayonnaise in advance in separate plates.

Next, take a flat large plate, divide each prepared portion of ingredients in half (it is better to repeat the layers rather than make them thick) and lay them out in the following order: potatoes, meat, cheese, walnuts, eggs. When laying out, give it a dome shape. Additionally, coat the entire structure with mayonnaise.

Now comes the turn of decoration. First we make the edge of the cap; part of the left protein, finely grated cheese and some nuts will go into it.

Place the squirrel cut into cloves onto the top. In some recipes I saw a red onion, cut in the same way, but crunching half an onion is somehow not for me, but the protein is quite edible. To imitate precious stones, we use green peas and garnets. It is better for our purposes to take the so-called seedless pomegranates - there is such a variety. In fact, the seeds are still present in the grains, but they are soft and do not crunch on the teeth. Well, here – “Monomakh’s Hat” is ready.

Let it sit in the refrigerator for a little while so that everything gets soaked and becomes friendly. The salad turns out to be very satisfying and tasty, but next time I will add something to contrast the flavors; for me this composition turned out to be a little bland, despite the presence of pomegranate.

Salad “Monomakh's Hat” - preparing food and dishes

The main ingredient of the salad is meat, poultry or fish. When purchasing this component, you need to pay attention to the freshness of the products. The first marker of freshness is smell. Fresh meat products have no odor at all; fish has a slight smell of sea water or iodine. A slightly more intense smell indicates that the fish has been lying on the counter for a short time, but if the smell is very strong with a hint of rottenness, do not buy such fish. As for meat and poultry, as soon as you smell the rotten smell, it means the product is no longer fresh.

Vegetables for salads must first be washed in running water, removed from seeds and skins.

Step-by-step preparation

Let's prepare the products

1. First of all, boil 4 potatoes, 2 carrots and 2 small beets in their skins. In a separate bowl, hard boil 4 chicken eggs.
2. When all the listed products are cooked and cooled, we clean them and grate them on a coarse grater, while placing them on different plates.
3. Peel 2 small cloves of garlic, then pass them through a press and add to the grated beets, mix.
4. Grind walnuts in the amount of 250 g in a blender or coffee grinder until small crumbs. Add half of the total mass of nuts to the bowl with beets and garlic.
5. Add 30 g of mayonnaise there and thoroughly stir the ingredients until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
6. Cut smoked chicken breast weighing about 200 g into small cubes and fold separately. Using a fine grater, grind 200 g of cheese, preferably hard varieties.

Assembling the salad

1. Place 1/3 of the grated potatoes in the first layer on a round and flat dish.
2. Add salt and pepper to taste, and then grease the potato layer with a small amount of mayonnaise.
3. The next layer is to lay out half of the beet mixture, on top of which we form a cheese “cap” using half of the total mass.
4. Gently brush the cheese layer with mayonnaise, then lay out 1/2 of the chicken breast and squeeze out the mayonnaise again.
5. We form the next layer from half the egg mixture, then mayonnaise.
6. We make a carrot layer, which we coat with mayonnaise.
7. Next, we repeat all the layers, and with each new layer we narrow the diameter of the product, so that in the end we visually get a Monomakh’s hat.
8. We form the very last layer from potatoes.
9. Then generously grease it with mayonnaise and sprinkle with the remaining nuts.
10. Sprinkle the edges of the salad cap with grated cheese.
11. To decorate the product, use your imagination and use the products available in the refrigerator. Pomegranate seeds, green peas and cherry tomatoes are perfect for this. Place the finished salad in the refrigerator for about an hour so that all layers are thoroughly soaked in mayonnaise.
