Russian salad with salami is typically made with diced potatoes, carrots, peas, salami and mayonnaise. Some versions add pickles or other vegetables, but the small, evenly cut pieces and creamy dressing are characteristic of this salad.
To make Russian salad with salami, boil diced potatoes and carrots until tender, then drain and cool them completely. Fold in peas and chopped salami, add mayonnaise, and chill before serving so the dressing coats the ingredients without turning runny.
Russian salad with salami is closely related to Olivier salad, but the ingredients vary by country and household. Olivier is often made with cooked meat such as chicken or ham, while this version specifically includes salami.
Russian salad with salami is a regional take on Russian salad, rather than one fixed traditional recipe. Russian salad is associated with Olivier salad, created in 19th-century Moscow; adding salami reflects local adaptations made in different cuisines.
Russian salad with salami gets watery when the vegetables are under-drained, still warm when mixed, or especially wet from pickles. Let the cooked vegetables cool fully, drain them well, and pat wet ingredients dry before adding mayonnaise.
A mild, firm salami that cuts neatly into small cubes works best in Russian salad with salami. A strongly smoked or heavily spiced variety can overpower the potatoes, vegetables and mayonnaise, so choose one with a flavor you enjoy cold.
No, Russian salad with salami does not freeze well. Mayonnaise can separate after thawing, while the potatoes and other vegetables often become soft and watery; make only what you expect to serve fresh.
Russian salad with salami should be kept covered in the refrigerator and eaten promptly. Do not leave it sitting out for an extended period, especially at a warm gathering, and discard leftovers that have been unrefrigerated too long.
Russian salad with salami pairs well with grilled meats, kebabs, cold cuts or sandwiches as a creamy side. Since it is rich and filling, a crisp green salad or fresh vegetables make a refreshing contrast.
Yes, you can prepare Russian salad with salami ahead and keep it covered in the refrigerator. For the freshest texture, cook and cool the vegetables in advance, then mix in the mayonnaise closer to serving.

Russian salad with salami is a chilled, mayonnaise-dressed mix of cooked potatoes, peas, carrots and pickles, with salami added to this version. It is an adaptation of Olivier salad, commonly traced to Moscow in the 19th century; recipes and ingredient ratios vary widely, and salami is not part of every version.
The soft vegetables, tangy pickles and savoury meat make it a familiar side at buffets, picnics and family meals in many places. It is served cold, sometimes alongside roast or grilled dishes, or as part of a spread. Mayonnaise gives it a relatively rich profile: it contains 17.1 g of fat per 100 g. For a lighter bowl, use less mayonnaise or replace part of it with plain yoghurt, and serve with crisp greens.
