Cod Liver Salad with Cheese and Rice Layers

An unusual version of a long-familiar salad will delight cod liver fans. This version of the salad can be served on a holiday table, preferably either on a large platter or in a transparent container so that the layers are visible. The salad is very tender. Rice removes excess fat from cod liver, and cheese adds an original flavor to the dish. The most important thing when preparing this salad is to successfully balance the amount of additional products such as rice and cheese, so as not to overwhelm the usual taste of the liver. It is known that cod liver is an extremely healthy product; other components of this salad are also rich in vitamins and microelements, and mayonnaise can be prepared at home. Try this dish and you will cook it again and again. Serve it chilled.

To make the salad less fatty, I suggest replacing traditional mayonnaise with a dressing for which you take 1 part mayonnaise and 1 part low-fat sour cream (10%) or yogurt without sugar and additives (I took homemade yogurt). Finely chop the dill, add to the dressing, add salt and pepper and mix well. In general, use the dressing sparingly, otherwise the salad will run and look untidy.
