Salad of processed cheese and eggs. Recipes for salads with processed cheeses

The popularly known salad with processed cheese, garlic and mayonnaise is a typical representative of the so-called “Soviet” salads. During my childhood, not a single significant home feast was complete without a “standard” list of salads, which, as a rule, were prepared from the most readily available products. In those days, when even ordinary chicken was in short supply, you could buy processed cheese in any store, which became the basis for a snack - processed cheese salad.

Processed milk cheese is obtained by processing regular cheese. The essence of the process of making processed cheese is the melting of finished cheeses in the presence of melting salts at a temperature below the boiling point of water. This process was invented in Switzerland a little over 100 years ago and now inexpensive processed cheese is sold everywhere and is one of the main ingredients of fast food. You can't have cheeseburgers or hamburgers without sliced ​​processed cheese.

To prepare the salad, you need store-bought processed cheese, which is sold in the form of rectangular bars weighing up to 100 grams. It is worth considering that the fat content of the product is more than 50%, so processed cheese salad is a very high-calorie snack, and you simply won’t be able to eat a lot of it. It is ideal to prepare processed cheese with garlic in small quantities and serve it with croutons or as part of sandwiches. It is quite possible to cook from processed cheese, it is only important to choose the frying mode so that the soft cheese does not drip.

People call garlic salad with melted cheese Jewish salad, “squirrel” salad or, quite rarely, “abramchik”. Why this is so - I don’t know. By and large, since the salad contains eggs and a dairy product, it is possible that this may contradict some canons of faith, and make the food not kosher. But, as it happened, the Jewish salad and its name stuck among the people.

The amazing thing about a simple snack, processed cheese with garlic, is that it never remains. Sandwiches turn out to be exceptionally tasty - a light snack, in terms of preparation.

Processed cheese with garlic and mayonnaise - prepares very quickly, and most of the time is needed to boil the eggs and cool them. The advantage of such a snack is that all the ingredients are available and cheap. If guests suddenly arrive, preparing a Jewish salad from processed cheese takes 20-30 minutes. By using your imagination, you can always approach cooking creatively, turning a seemingly ordinary salad with melted cheese into a beautiful and even varied appetizer.

Salad with processed cheese. It is he!

Ingredients (4-6 servings)

  • Processed cheese 3 pcs
  • Egg 2 pcs
  • Garlic 1 head
  • Homemade mayonnaise 3-4 tbsp. l.
  • Basil 1 sprig
  • Loaf or tartlets for filing
  1. Salad with processed cheese is so simple and popular that even a child can prepare it. Just grate all the ingredients on a fine grater, mix them and season with mayonnaise. The result is an ordinary, popular Jewish salad. Like everyone else, no worse and no better. But, as one actor proved, he can even become a “Delhi Spinosa” if he wants to. Or vice versa.

  2. First you need to hard boil two chicken eggs. Eggs are usually stored in the refrigerator, so you shouldn't put them in boiling water; most likely they will crack and leak. Place the eggs in cold water and place the saucepan on the fire. Count 10 minutes from the start of boiling and cool the eggs under running cold water. Peel the eggs immediately. Separate the boiled white from the yolk.
  3. Processed cheeses are needed without flavorings or additives. I remember that during my childhood, the most popular cheese was “Druzhba”, and they made a salad from Druzhba cheese. Nowadays the choice of cheese curds is more varied, but it is worth making sure that the composition does not contain palm oil, unclear names and the ubiquitous “E-shek”. Grate the processed cheese onto a fine grater.

  4. Grate and add egg white to the cheese. The amount of garlic is strictly optional, but, to my taste, garlic cheese salad should have a strong garlic flavor. Usually one large clove of homemade garlic grown in the garden is added to one processed cheese, then the Jewish salad turns out to be moderately spicy. Our local varieties of garlic are many times more aromatic and “garlicy” than imported ones. Focus on your taste. Grate the garlic.

  5. Mix processed cheese, egg white and grated garlic. Add Mayo. Of course, you can buy mayonnaise, and it’s quite good. But it’s easy to make homemade mayonnaise yourself, using the same principle as for shrimp. It's quick and not difficult. Leave 1 tsp. mayonnaise - you will need it to decorate the appetizer. Using a fork, thoroughly mix the garlic salad ingredients, breaking up any lumps and making sure everything is evenly mixed.

  6. Actually, the garlic Jewish salad is ready. But, we will go further, our goal is to prepare a beautiful appetizer worthy of a festive table. Divide the salad with processed cheese into three parts and arrange them in different bowls. One third of the salad will remain as it is - a pleasant, almost white shade.

  7. Remove the leaves from the prepared basil sprig and chop them with a knife. Place the basil in a mortar and add 1 tsp. mayonnaise. Grind the mayonnaise and basil as thoroughly as possible until the mayonnaise turns green. The presence of large pieces of greenery in the sauce is acceptable and even encouraged. Add the colored sauce to the second bowl with the processed cheese salad and mix thoroughly. The salad will turn a nice pale green color.
  8. Grate all the egg yolk that was set aside into the third bowl and mix as well. Depending on the color of the yolk, the Jewish salad with processed cheese will turn from yellow to orange in color. You can start decorating.

    The salad is ready to be served

  9. In the simplest and fastest version, it is enough to put the Jewish salad in salad bowls and serve as an appetizer. I advise you to prepare small tartlets from unsweetened dough in advance. You can buy them ready-made, or buy puff pastry, divide it into squares or circles and bake the tartlets yourself, like mini-pizza.

Step 1: prepare the carrots.

First of all, using a kitchen brush, thoroughly wash the carrots. Then we put it in a small saucepan, fill it with regular running water so that the liquid level is 7-8 centimeters higher than the vegetable, and put it on medium heat.

After boiling, cook the carrots until soft, this will take approximately 30 -40 minutes, depending on the variety. Periodically check its readiness with a table fork. If the teeth enter without pressure, help yourself with a slotted spoon, place the carrots in a deep plate and cool to room temperature near an open window.

Step 2: prepare chicken eggs.


At the same time as carrots, prepare chicken eggs. Place them in a small saucepan and fill with running water, 5–7 centimeters above the level.

Add a couple of tablespoons of salt and 9% vinegar there. After boiling, boil the eggs hard 10 –12 minutes, then using a slotted spoon, transfer them to a bowl of ice water and cool to room temperature.

While the boiled products are cooling, put a couple of processed cheeses into the freezer for 25 -30 minutes and bring a kettle full of purified water to a boil.

Step 3: prepare the onions.


At the same time, we deal with the onions, peel them, wash them, dry them with paper kitchen towels, place them on a cutting board and cut them into cubes up to 1 centimeter in size.

Then transfer the slices into a colander with a fine mesh and place it on the surface of a small bowl. After this, scald the chopped onion until softened with boiling water from a kettle and leave it in this form until the moment of use, so that it completely cools and dries.

Step 4: prepare the salad with melted cheese.


After the boiled ingredients have cooled, you can begin the final stage of preparing the dish. Peel the eggs, wash and dry. Separate the whites from the yolks and grate them on a fine or medium grater into separate deep plates.

We remove the skin from the carrots and the food casing from the ham, place them one by one on a cutting board and cut into small cubes or thin layers.

We take the processed cheese out of the freezer, remove the aluminum foil from it and grate it on a coarse grater into a separate small bowl, you should get a loose mass.

Then we take a salad bowl and place egg white on its bottom in an even layer.

Place shredded processed cheese on top. Lubricate it with a generous portion of mayonnaise, about 1 centimeter thick.

Then we distribute carrot cubes on it in an artistic disorder and chopped ham on top of them.

Apply another portion of mayonnaise to these products and sprinkle its layer with already cooled onions.

We re-distribute mayonnaise on the surface of the chopped vegetable, this time the thickness of its layer can be reduced to 5 millimeters, and sprinkle the finished salad with egg yolk.

Cover the salad bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. After the required time has passed, we serve the finished dish to the table.

Step 5: Serve the salad with melted cheese.


After preparing the salad with processed cheese, leave it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours so that all layers are saturated with mayonnaise, and serve chilled.

This dish is prepared without salt, which is found in sufficient quantities in ham and cheese, and therefore has a pleasant, unsweetening aftertaste. This salad will bring pleasure and diversify your everyday or holiday table!
Bon appetit!

Carrots and eggs can be boiled prematurely;

Very often, green onions are used instead of onions;

Replacement for ham - boiled sausage, boiled chicken, pork or beef;

Before serving, the salad can be decorated with any fresh herbs, for example, sprigs of dill, parsley, cilantro or green onion stalks.

Currently, the number of different types of cheese has exceeded tens of thousands. Moreover, the technologies of each of them are very different.

Cheese is also an easily digestible and incredibly healthy product. Due to the content of vitamins B and A, calcium, methionine, tryptophan and proteins, it has a positive effect on human health.

Cheese can be called concentrated solid milk. It retains all the benefits of whole milk. However, the energy value of cheese is several times higher than that of milk cheese and is approximately 300-400 kcal, depending on the variety.

Due to its high calcium content, this dairy product can be an excellent way to prevent osteoporosis. In addition, daily consumption improves the condition of bones, nails and hair. It is especially recommended to eat cheese for breakfast, as it helps awaken your appetite and gives you energy for several hours ahead.

Hundreds of different dishes can be prepared from cheese. One has only to look at the cuisines of the whole world. In Italy it's pizza and spicy Italian salads. In the Balkans - salads with feta, in the Caucasus - salads with feta cheese. It is known that dishes not only with whole pieces of cheese, but also with processed cheese are widespread.

As a rule, processed cheese is heated to the melting temperature and then it is simply poured over dishes. This unusual way of decoration gives the dish an additional delicate taste of cheese. For example, hot salads are prepared in a similar way in Eastern countries.

On our website we have already addressed cheeses several times. Be it salads with mozzarella or original salads with feta or feta cheese. In any case, today we will experiment a little with ordinary hard cheese, namely, we will melt it and try how it will feel in a salad.

The dish received its original name back in the Soviet years. The main idea of ​​the salad, in my opinion, was the ability to adapt to any conditions without losing its individuality and dignity. Perhaps this is precisely what served as the pretext for such an objective nickname - Jewish salad.

Being a distant descendant of Polish Jews, I feel especially proud of this work of culinary art. What’s good about cooking is that styles and trends that are dissimilar to each other coexist peacefully here, without denying or competing with each other.

  • Processed cheese (two or three pieces).

I peel the garlic.

I chop the garlic with a knife. You can also use a garlic press for this purpose.

I mix all the ingredients, salt, add ground black pepper, and then season the salad with mayonnaise. To give the salad a delicate texture, I recommend adding a small piece of butter.

Then I mix again.

As a dressing, a suitable option would be natural homemade mayonnaise, the recipe for which is. If you use it, the snack will delight you not only with its expressive taste, giving it the missing touches of aftertaste, but it will also definitely become much healthier.
