Step-by-step cooking of crab salad for the New Year with calendar instant noodles
1. Prepare crab salad according to a well-known recipe: crab sticks, cucumber, finely chopped hard-boiled boiled egg. We set aside the whites of two eggs and the pink part of one stick for decoration. Instant noodles - we have a pack of "Mivina" - we mash, without taking them out of the pack (just do not forget to cut off a corner or slightly open the package so that it does not burst under pressure), pour the noodles into a salad bowl. We add canned corn along with the marinade, it will saturate the dry noodles. Save one egg for decoration.
2. Add the mayonnaise, mix the salad and leave it for 10 minutes to soak and soften the noodles.
3. We spread the salad on a beautiful serving dish, giving it the shape of a rectangle, this will be the first page of the tear-off calendar, tamp it slightly, level the edges with knives with wide blades. When the shape of the salad is formed, cover it with a mayonnaise net.
4. Cover the salad with finely grated proteins. On one of the narrow sides, spread the yolk at a distance of about 2–2.5 centimeters. This is the metal edge of the tear-off calendar.
5. Cut the crab stick (red part) into thin strips, spread on January 1st on a calendar sheet. Decorate the salad with a spruce paw from a dill sprig.
