Recipe steps

We will start by boiling the potatoes in their skins the day before.

It is best to make the salad in the morning so it is ready for dinner.

We will hard-boil the eggs, peel them, and let them cool. We will clean the vegetables and cook them together with bay leaves, allspice, whole peppercorns, vinegar, a pinch of salt, and sugar. When they are cooked and the vegetables are tender, we will take them out and let them cool.

We will peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes or use a grater. We will finely chop the cucumbers, onions, and cooled vegetables.

We will put everything in a large bowl, add peas, mayonnaise, mustard, oil, salt, ground pepper, and optionally a bit of plain yogurt, and mix it by hand. Finally, we will add the eggs with a little bit of the liquid in which we cooked the vegetables. We will mix it one more time and put it in the fridge to chill.
