Cooking tips

Avoid mistakes: The main mistake is adding too much mayonnaise. Add it gradually to prevent the salad from becoming too runny.

Serving: Serve the salad in a mound, garnished with fresh herbs. For a more festive look, arrange it in a salad bowl or serve it in individual bowls.

Make it easier: To speed up the process, you can prepare all the ingredients in advance and store them in the refrigerator, then just mix them together and dress with mayonnaise before serving.
Instead of canned cucumbers, you can use salted or pickled ones.
