On the eve of the New Year, the culinary space throughout our country is divided into two camps: those who cannot imagine this holiday without the traditional Olivier and Herring under a fur coat, and those who are determined to experiment. Of course, most of our fellow citizens will have salads on the festive tables for the New Year 2017, which, without a doubt, have already become classics of the genre. And we are not going to encroach on the dishes that have become so familiar to many of us, but it is still possible to experiment this year: in “Herring under a fur coat” replace the herring with squid, and in “Olivier” instead of sausage put shrimp or chicken fillet. Only one ingredient was changed, and on the table it seems to be the same dish, but only a little better and more unusual.
In any case, when thinking over salads for the New Year 2017, you should not limit yourself to the usual set, because every hostess has a dream to make this holiday unusually tasty and unforgettable, so that relatives and friends are delighted with the prepared salads and are simply overwhelmed by their beauty.

Bon appetit and Happy New Year 2017! Be happy and healthy in the new year!
New Year's bustle is the lot of every woman, and this especially applies to mothers. Agree that you really want to pamper your beloved husband and children with something unusual and tasty! And if our men are ready to gobble up all the dishes of the New Year's table, then such a trick will not work with children.
In order not to once again persuade your beloved child to eat "a couple more spoons" and not to observe the sad picking of appliances in salads, you need to think over a children's New Year's menu, and we will gladly throw in a couple of great ideas. In this article you will find answers to the questions of how and what to cook for a child for the New Year, as well as a hypoallergenic, but no less appetizing, table for sensitive babies.
Regardless of the age of the child and the products used, the dishes should be tasty, healthy, beautiful and interesting for the child.
Here, it is unlikely that the imagination will roam at all, because until their birthday, babies eat mainly mother's milk or a mixture, and try "adult" products only as an introduction to food, and to pamper their taste buds. It makes no sense to cook separately for such a crumb, he is unlikely to appreciate your efforts.
But for the interest and accustoming the toddler to a festive meal, you can make a small and, of course, healthy dish especially for him. As a rule, small desserts are made for such babies, which they will surely like.
You will need:
Children's curd, 1 pack. (it is possible with additives);
Children's fruit puree, 1 small jar;
Baby biscuits, 1 pack (Bondi, Khaints);
Milk;
Optionally, finely chopped fruits or berries (banana, cherry, strawberry).
We mix the package of curd and a jar of fruit puree until a gruel is formed. We spread a layer of cookies (pre-soak in warmed milk). Enough 6 cookies per layer. Apply a layer of curd-puree gruel on top with a small spoon or silicone brush. Next, another layer of cookies. You can make 3 layers of cookies and 3 layers of cottage cheese, the last should be cottage cheese. For beauty, the remaining mixture can be beautifully poured over the edges to create smudges. Or you can make a "fence" of cookies, placed vertically. Put pieces of berries or fruits in the middle on the "cream", if desired.
You will need:
Compote or juice, 2 glasses;
Gelatin, 25 g;
Fruit or berries (optional);
Sugar, 1 tsp;
Molds.
Dilute the gelatin with juice and leave for one hour to swell the gelatin. Add sugar to the mixture and heat over low heat, stirring until completely dissolved. Pour the liquid into molds and put it in a cold place. The jelly is ready! You can decorate with small pieces of fruit, or you can add them directly to the jelly when pouring into molds. In order for the jelly to be multi-colored, it is necessary to make a jelly liquid from different juices according to the above principle and fill it in layers.
At this age, children comprehend new possibilities of their body, and they have more than enough energy, not a minute of rest, constantly in motion and games. Poor mothers and fathers cannot sit quietly at the festive table in any way, so you should try hard to interest the little fidget.
But the trouble is, the baby is unlikely to sit at least half an hour at the table, but even in this case there is a way out! Surely, among the children's furniture, the toddler has his own table and chair, so why not “cover the meadow” there? A mischievous person can himself (independent and big!) In between games decide what to eat from the assortment of such beautiful dishes. We offer children's recipes for the New Year, corresponding to this age category.
You will need:
Cutting fruits and berries;
Yogurt (you can homemade, no additives);
Sugar, 2 tsp
Put the pieces of fruit in a nice bowl and fill with yogurt. If the yogurt is unsweetened, then add sugar and stir beforehand.
You will need:
Coarse grater;
Potatoes (1 pc);
Carrots (1 pc);
Beets (1 pc);
? Fresh cucumber (1 pc);
? Green onions (a pair of feathers);
Egg (1 pc);
? Vegetable oil (sunflower, olive, corn).
Boil small potatoes, carrots, beets and an egg and grate or finely dice. Chop a fresh cucumber and a couple of green onion feathers. Mix everything and fill with a little oil.
What you need:
Large ripe tomatoes (2-4 pcs);
? Rice (quarter cup);
? Chicken breast (1 pc);
? Greens (several branches);
? Cheese (for decoration);
? Butter (1 tsp);
Salt (to taste);
Sour cream.
Cut off the stalk of the tomatoes and take out the pulp with a teaspoon. Boil rice and chicken in salted water. Put a little finely chopped boiled fillet on the bottom of each tomato, add a little butter on top, then put the rice and sprinkle with grated hard cheese on top. Put the tomatoes in a baking dish or baking sheet and bake in the oven or microwave for no more than 5-10 minutes. Sprinkle the prepared tomatoes with herbs. You can make Santa Clauses out of tomatoes by drawing a beard for them with thick sour cream.
Children who have crossed the three-year milestone can include almost all food products in the menu, from which the children's New Year's table is selected from a much larger assortment. There is an opportunity to pick up both hot dishes and salads with appetizers, as well as desserts. One thing a caring mother will always remember: it costs a little bit of everything to cook, it is unlikely that your baby will gobble it all up.
Most children, and parents too, love chicken fillet for its tenderness and juiciness, chicken breast dishes are prepared quickly enough, but this makes them no less tasty. Small teeth can easily chew on a juicy baked breast, and if it also looks beautiful, mmm! Delight!
What you need:
? Chicken breasts (2-4 pcs);
Cheese (100 g);
Greens (bunch);
? Butter (1 tablespoon);
Cream 20%;
Salt (to taste);
Egg (1 pc).
Lightly beat the chicken fillet, season with salt. Finely chop the greens, grate the cheese, melt a little butter, combine in one mass and put on the fillet. Roll up the roll, if necessary, tie it with a rope so that it does not turn around during the cooking process. Beat the raw egg, mix with the cream and add a little grated cheese. Pour the rolls on top and bake in the oven until tender.
Your child will be delighted with this simple dish in an original design! It turns out that snowmen can be molded not only from the snow mass.
What you need:
Boiled potatoes (1 medium potato);
? Hard cheese (100 g);
? Processed cheese (1 pack);
? Soft curd cheese (1 pack);
? Boiled egg (1-2 pcs);
Salt (to taste);
? Carrots (for decoration);
? Mayonnaise (sour cream) (1 tablespoon);
? Greens (small bunch).
Grate potatoes and egg, mix with curd cheese. Grate the cheeses finely and add to the mixture, season with salt. It is necessary to achieve a thick homogeneous mass, so we add quite a bit of mayonnaise or sour cream. It is better if the mayonnaise is homemade with lemon juice instead of vinegar. From the resulting mass, we sculpt balls - the body of a snowman and, if there is a lot of mass, the cones are Christmas trees. We form snowmen and Christmas trees on a platter, which can be overlaid with greenery. From slices of boiled carrots we make hats and noses for snowmen, eyes and buttons can be made from slices of olives.
A delicious dessert will help to complement the children's New Year's table. I would like it to be associated with the New Year and the time of magic and miracles, aromatic gingerbread cookies will be very useful!
What you need:
Ginger dry (powder) (1 tablespoon);
? Ginger root (1 tablespoon);
? Butter (a quarter of a pack);
Flour (300g);
Sugar (3 tbsp. L.);
Egg (1 pc);
Cocoa (1 tablespoon);
Cinnamon (1 tsp.);
Soda (1/2 tsp);
? Ground cloves (1/2 tsp.).
We knead the dough. Beat the egg with sugar and butter. Gradually add bulk ingredients: flour, cocoa, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, soda. Knead the dough and put it in a cold place for half an hour. Then we roll out the dough into a thin cake (you shouldn't make it too thin, but too thick will not come in handy, the ideal option is up to 1 cm). We take any molds and cut out the figures.
If you have frosting, you can decorate the resulting cookies with it. In an oven preheated to 200 ° C, place a baking sheet with cookies and bake for a maximum of 15 minutes. You can sprinkle with icing sugar on top for garnish before serving.
Strong allergens among the foods we are used to are: chicken, chocolate, dairy products, nuts, citrus fruits, eggs and gluten-containing foods. It is very difficult to create a table for babies with food sensitivities, and a full-fledged children's New Year's menu for mothers seems like an impossible dream. But this is New Year, dreams come true, and miracles happen on every corner! We offer several recipes for a New Year's hypoallergenic table.
Turkey is considered non-allergenic meat along with rabbit meat, and its combination with various vegetables will help to make the dish tasty and juicy. The dish can be changed depending on the presence of a reaction to a particular component. It is important to bake it in the sleeve, so the meat will turn out juicy, then you will lick your fingers!
What you need:
Turkey fillet (thigh);
Zucchini (1 pc);
Carrots (1 pc);
Broccoli (1 piece);
I must say right away that there are a lot of delicious salads for the New Year, so you need to choose in accordance with the tastes of your family - for example, my dad will not touch any salad with fish, and naturally, my mother practically did not cook such salads, but was looking for other New Year's recipes ...
New Year will be held under the auspices of a fiery rooster. If you focus on Chinese traditions, where all the patron animals of a particular year came from, then you should not use rooster dishes (and, just in case, chicken) on the festive table.
But here it is worth noting that the new year according to the Chinese calendar comes a few weeks after December 31, which means that you can not deny yourself.
The New Year's feast should be bright - prepare dishes in which there is a place for yellow and red colors!

You can even decorate Olivier in this way, but why not cook something more interesting?
A small life hack: if in the process of sculpting a rooster you stain the plate with mayonnaise or other ingredients, then you need to wet a napkin or cotton swab and wipe it gently, and so that there are no streaks, wipe it with another napkin dipped in a weak solution of vinegar.
Ingredients
Little life hack: so that the sliced cucumber does not give excess juice in the salad, you need to put it in a colander and add salt - in 20-30 minutes the excess juice will drain from it.
But there are other delicious salads that can be prepared for the new year of the rooster without mayonnaise.
Simple New Year's salads are good because their preparation does not take much time - which you will need to prepare a salad in the form of a firecracker or the same Cockerel.

There is very little time left, and many housewives are racking their brains over drawing up a festive menu. Here you will find the rules and recipes for decorating the New Year's table.
The new 2017 year according to the eastern calendar is considered the year that is considered the most sociable, and fire symbolizes vital energy that strives for growth and success. That is why, when preparing for the New Year's celebration, you need to approach with enthusiasm and bright ideas.
When setting the table, use reds and golds, and white and silver are perfect for diluting the bright colors. And of course, we mustn't forget about the candles!
Believing in signs is a purely personal matter, but you must definitely know how to attract the Fire Rooster's luck and be able to appease him, because New Year's Eve is the night of magic. To do this, one must take into account the preferences and tastes of a wonderful and bright bird.
The rooster is an economical but not greedy animal. The festive table should show your wealth, but at the same time not burst with an abundance of food and dishes. Dishes can be as simple as possible, rather than overly complex or exotic.
Often on the festive table you can see fried chicken, duck or other bird. But not on the upcoming New Year's Eve. You need to give up such dishes. The presence of poultry meat can only be found in salads and in small quantities. Therefore, you should give preference to pork, veal, beef and fish dishes. Also, do not put stuffed eggs on the table.
On the table in the year of the Fire Rooster, there should be vegetables and fruits, both in salads and in slices. Don't forget about the dessert. It is best to make a pie or cake.
For this dish, you will need the following products: 1 kg of salmon fillet, 300 ml of cream no more than 10% fat, 150 g of cheese, 1 onion, salt and seasonings to your taste.
The first step is to make the sauce. Pour the cream into a small bowl. Add salt and seasonings to them. Condiments can be anything you like. If you add a little lemon juice to the cream, then the sauce will thicken and will resemble liquid sour cream in consistency.
Cut the salmon fillet into small pieces and put on a baking sheet, previously greased with vegetable oil. Pour the fillet with sauce and let stand for about 20 minutes. Then sprinkle the slices of salmon with grated cheese. Now you need to send the baking sheet to the oven, preheated to 180 degrees. The fish should be baked for 30-35 minutes.
For a side dish you will need: 10 large or 15 medium potatoes, 2 egg whites, spices, and olive oil.
First you need to make a light batter in which the potatoes will be cooked. To do this, beat the egg whites well. The potatoes must be cut into slices and mixed in the whipped egg whites. Then add all the seasonings to your liking. A small amount of olive oil is added to a baking sheet, and put the potato wedges. Sprinkle with herbs on top if desired. You need to bake potatoes at 220 degrees for about 40 minutes. while stirring the potatoes every 10-15 minutes.
Ingredients: 1 kg of pork neck, 200 g of feta cheese, 200 g of prunes, 250 g of sour cream no more than 25% fat, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 4 tablespoons of mustard with grains, 2 teaspoons of dried basil, salt and pepper to taste.
