Vodka No Fear
Vodka No Fear is a bold, savory Russian-inspired salad, often called a 'hangover cure' or 'detox' dish, despite its name. It typically features diced boiled potatoes, pickles, eggs, and a protein like chicken or ham, all bound together with a generous amount of mayonnaise and sometimes a splash of vodka for flavor. The name is a playful nod to the dish's hearty, no-nonsense character.
