Such a salad, of course, is not for summer time and everyday snacking. Because of the hearty components - sausage, cheese, mayonnaise, such a salad is more suitable for the winter season, and for the festive table, when you need to diversify the cold table with a hearty salad and feed guests.

How to make a salad with corn, sausage and crackers? Prepare the ingredients. Use canned corn, you will need 1 can. Cucumbers are fresh. I take half-smoked sausage (cervelat), but I can also take smoked sausage. Cheese is suitable for both hard and semi-hard, the main thing is that it is of high quality and tasty. I use regular mayonnaise, you can take home.

Gently open the tin of canned corn with a tin knife. Drain the liquid by dropping the grains on a sieve. Put the canned corn in a deep salad bowl or bowl.

Peel the semi-smoked sausage from the shell and cut into strips or bars. Add the sliced sausage to the corn salad bowl.

Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Add the grated cheese to the salad bowl to the previously prepared ingredients.

Wash the fresh cucumbers, cut off the tips and cut the same way as the sausage. Add the chopped cucumbers to the salad.

Remove the crumbs from the package and add to the salad. It is better to choose crackers with a not pronounced taste. Home-made crackers can be used. Season the salad with mayonnaise, mix. I do not add salt, as both sausage and mayonnaise are quite salty. But you can try the salad and add salt to your liking. Immediately serve the salad on the table so that the crackers do not soak and lose their crispiness.

If you make a salad in advance, then put crackers and mayonnaise immediately before serving. The salad can be served in a common salad, decorated with fresh herbs, or it can be made in portions using a serving ring.

The salad will look beautiful and neat if you cut all the ingredients into the same size and shape in pieces (for example, cubes).

Mayonnaise is better to cook on its own. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise. Also, not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt can be used as a dressing. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

How to buy canned corn correctly? Be sure to look at the expiration date on the jar. If the container is glass, carefully consider the grains. They should be the same size and color, whole and without spots. The composition should not contain dyes, preservatives and flavor enhancers.
