All liquid and large bones should be removed from canned fish.
Lightly salt each layer of salad; calculate the amount of salt based on how salty your mayonnaise is.

Instead of red onion, I added white onion, scalding it slightly, and it turned out great too! 👍
I don't think white onions can deliver that alluring aroma that every housewife loves. Red onions add just the right amount of zest. Plus, I prefer to finely chop them first and then press them firmly to create a firm layer.
I MAKE IT IN A LAYER, INSTEAD OF CANNED FOOD, BOILED RED FISH!!! THE SALAD IS SUPER!!!!!
