About

This Beef Salad (or "Salade de bœuf") is an Eastern European apetizer originally derived from the Russian Salad, originally created by the belgian chef Lucien Olivier in Russia around 1860... The original recipe was kept secret with great care and was never revealed. However it was reproduced in many ways since then and become very popular especially at celebrations like the New Year's Eve in many countries.
This recipe is one of my favorite Beef Salad recipe and, as a bonus, it is also a low carb variant with no compromise in taste!
