Egg-Free Olivier Salad with Adyghe Cheese

An excellent Olivier can be prepared even without eggs and sausage. Indian black salt will add an eggy taste; it is a fundamental ingredient in salad dressing. Turmeric will give a slight yellow tint. It is also important to take tasty cucumbers, preferably pickled or market cucumbers. To enhance the nutritional value of the salad, you can add finely chopped Adyghe cheese. This salad should not be stored for more than a day.
