My grandmother only made this salad on very special occasions, like Christmas. Luckily, one day I lost my patience and decided that I didn't want to wait for my birthday or Christmas to make my belly happy. I took matters into my own hands and learned to make it myself. It turned out to be pretty easy to make. In addition, it stayed super fresh in the refrigerator for multiple days.
