I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out mushy and bland. I think I overcooked the beets.

This recipe is missing some important ingredients. It doesn't mention garlic or cilantro, which are essential for Georgian beet salad.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad turned out a bit too sour. I think I'll add a little bit of honey next time to balance the flavors.

This salad is an absolute winner! The dressing is tangy and garlicky, and the walnuts add a nice crunch. I highly recommend it.

I love the vibrant color of this salad! The addition of pomegranate seeds adds a nice touch of tartness that balances the sweetness of the beets.
