Champagne wishes and caviar dreams II

If you happen to have some smoked salmon and caviar left from Christmas celebrations, this recipe salad is perfect for you.

Caviar is considered a delicacy and is eaten as a garnish. Usually high-quality caviar is appreciated in purity, given the value. Lower-quality caviar can possibly be combined, in cold or slightly warm preparations, with light flavors. Otherwise, it may be served with fresh-taste vegetables to enrich some salad with its captivating consistency and color. 

Which is is exactly what we will do today!
