BEET SALAD
My Finnish mother-in-law taught me to make this. It is a family favourite. Measurements are only a guide...it's a good make-ahead salad.

- Wash beets, cut off top stem, and place in a pot with water to cover. Peel potato and carrots, and add to the pot. Bring to a gentle boil. Remove carrots and potato as they become fork tender - be careful not to overcook. Let cool. As beets become tender, remove to a bowl of cold water. Slip off the peels, and cool slightly.
- Dice beets.(Use about 4 - 6 cups diced). Dice carrots, potatoes. Make a small dice,for all vegies, about 1/2 cm or 1/4 inch. Chop onion fine. Place all in a large bowl. Add the diced dill pickles. Pour over 1/2 - 3/4 cups dill pickle juice. Stir gently.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- When serving, stir in about 2 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise, or to taste.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but this salad was a disaster. The beets were burnt and the dressing was curdled. I had to throw the whole thing away.

[email protected]This salad was a waste of time and ingredients. The beets were hard and the dressing was gross. I would not recommend this salad to anyone.

[email protected]I found this salad to be very bland. The beets were not very flavorful and the dressing was very watery. I would not recommend this salad to others.

[email protected]The beets were not roasted evenly. Some were still hard while others were mushy. The dressing was also a bit too oily for my taste.
Nafees Ahmed
[email protected]This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different dressing. Otherwise, it was a good salad.

[email protected]This salad was easy to make and very tasty. I used golden beets instead of red beets and they were delicious. I also added a bit of crumbled bacon to the salad for extra flavor.

[email protected]This salad was a big hit at my dinner party! The combination of sweet beets, tangy goat cheese, and crunchy walnuts was perfect. I also loved the dressing, which was light and flavorful. I will definitely be making this salad again.
