I made this for my Russian husband and he really liked it. This type of salad can be made in so many different ways by Russians, but this particular recipe is delicious just the way it is. Thanks for sharing your version JMRIBKA, I have made it a few times already. :-)

I had left over salmon from last night. So, I had all the ingredients for this simple salad and it was great. The potatoes really balance the strong salmon flavor, which I am not a fan of. I added crushed pepper to the onions for a little kick. Glad I found this recipe.

I mixed the sauteed onions, salmon, potatoes and mayo together, then served on lettuce with the sliced eggs. Great flavor! Thanks for the recipe!

Not as much onion or mayo. (Put garlic powder and salt and pepper in the mayo).

It had a very good flavor- a little drier than I was expecting, though.

This was a very good recipe, I made it for a potluck and it was almost gone afterwards.

this turned out very well, very simple to make. i mixed the mayo with the potato before i layered it, and did the same thing with the egg (to save time!) it might not be as authentic, but i felt it helped mix the flavours more. definitely needs salt and pepper

I am Russian and indeed this salad is very popular in my country. But there are couple of things we do differently: we grate potatoes and eggs after they are boiled, first goes salmon, then potatoes, whites, then yolks. Mayo between each layer and no mayo on the top! In my family we also add boiled and grated carrots on top of the salmon (by the way, i prefer to canned in oil - it's juicier). Some families also put steamed rice in between. This salad is called "mimoza".

I invited a Russian gentleman to dinner, honoring him by cooking a Russian menu. I found 3 recipes on the web. This was exquisite! I chilled it for about 3 hours. It was excellent the next day for breakfast and again for diner. It served 8. The man said it was very authentic. I recommend it HIGHLY. We had it with a Russian Tomato Salad and Roasted Lamb leg with Artichokes. All 3 were a huge hit!!!

This recipe has become a favourite in our household. Whenever we go to a bbq I take this dish and its always the first one gone, just like JMRIBKA says. Like another reviewer mentioned, I do more eggs so it completely covers the top.

This was delicious. I am always looking for ways to eat more salmon because it is so good for you! I used vaccume packed salmon and seasoned liberally with salt and pepper at each layer. It was simple easy and tasty. Read entire instructions before making. I give it 4 and a 1/2 stars.

This is very good! My mom is russian and she makes this salad with tuna, plus she adds some grated cheese layer to it, but it's also very good with salmon!

This is so good. I actually used 5 eggs, so that eggs would cover the whole layer of potatoes, without potatoes being visible. The only thing I would probably change is adding some salt and pepper over potatoes for a little more to it. thank you JMRIBKA. I'll be looking at your other recipes.
