Real-world information
Olivier salad (салат Оливье salat Olivye) is a Russian dish often served as one of the main dishes during the Novy God celebration. Though the ingredients vary, it is often made with potatoes, carrots, dill pickles, green peas, eggs, celeriac, onions, a meat product (commonly chicken or bologna sausage), and tart apples. Salt, pepper, and mustard are added to enhance the flavor of the dish, and mayonnaise is served as the dressing of the salad.
The dish was originally invented in the 1860s by Lucien Olivier, a Russian cook from Belgian and French descent, who served it for the Hermitage, a popular restaurant in Moscow. A sous-chef of Olivier, Ivan Ivanov, later tried to steal the recipe and make his own version of Olivier's salad, but reports by gourmand noted that Ivanov's salad dressing had less quality compared to Olivier's. Ivanov would later sell the recipe to various publications across Russia, making the dish popular as a result. More information on this topic is available at Wikipedia.
