What
is Shuba
SALAD?
I mean, food can solve everything right?

Simply put, shuba salad, or "Herring Under a Fur Coat," is a layered salad of pickled herring fillets, finely chopped onion, beets, carrots, potatoes and dressing. In Russian, "shuba" means "fur coat," and more specifically references the big coats Russians have to wear during the harsh winter months. It's a fun, delicious and classic dish that has graced Russian tables for decades.

But, who came up with the idea for this signature salad? Legend has it that restaurateur Anastas Bogomilov created the dish to fill the bellies of his customers. His patrons were notorious for drinking too much and causing a ruckus. To alleviate the tension, it’s rumored he created the ultra-filling shuba salad.

Instruc
tions
Clean beets, potatoes, and carrots. Grate each separately on a cheese grater. Slice herring and onion into small pieces. Using a combination of a large plate and a mold (or a deep tray), begin by first placing potatoes on the bottom.

Clean
Boil beets for 45 minutes in a small pot. In a separate pot, boil potatoes and carrots for 25 minutes. Remove all ingredients from the boiling water and let them cool off. Another way to cook ingredients is by baking them in the oven. Wrap beets, carrots and potatoes in foil and bake them at 400 °F for 30- 45 minutes. Carrots and potatoes cook sooner, check using a fork to confirm they are cooked thoroughly.
