Classic vinaigrette with peas

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a classic vinaigrette with canned green peas? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Wash the potatoes, beets and carrots, put them in a saucepan, cover with water and boil in their skins until tender. Then drain the water and cool the vegetables. Drain the brine from the sauerkraut, squeeze the cabbage lightly, otherwise the salad will turn out watery, and a lot of juice from the cabbage will accumulate at the bottom.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut the boiled carrots into small cubes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel the onion, wash it and cut it into small cubes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the boiled beets into small cubes. I haven’t boiled beets for a long time, but buy them in the store already boiled whole in an airtight package. This way you can reduce the cooking time (beets take the longest to cook) and keep your hands clean. The juice from canned beets is washed off easier and faster and does not eat into the skin so much.

5. STEP 5

   

   Also cut the potatoes into small cubes. My potatoes are small, so I took 3 of them.

6. STEP 6

   

   Shake the pickled cucumbers off the brine and also cut into small cubes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the canned peas in a sieve and dry.

8. STEP 8

   

   Wash the greens, dry and finely chop.

9. STEP 9

   

   Place the chopped vegetables in a salad bowl, add sauerkraut and canned peas.

10. STEP 10

    

    Lightly mix the ingredients. Sprinkle the salad with chopped herbs, pour over vegetable oil - unrefined, fragrant sunflower oil is more suitable here. Add salt to taste and mix well.

11. STEP 11

    

    You can serve the salad directly in a salad bowl, or you can give it a more elegant look and place the finished salad in a cooking ring. Before serving, remove the cooking ring and serve the salad. Bon appetit!

The cold weather is coming and the first thing that comes to mind is to make a vinaigrette! I like the process itself) I bake the beets in the oven, wrapped in foil, so they turn out sweeter and not at all watery. But I boil carrots and potatoes. This is my kind of relaxation - peeling vegetables, then cutting them into cubes and watching a movie at the same time) I took the cucumbers from my summer preparations, I specially roll up several small jars so that the portion is just right for the salad. In addition, I took a sample and the cucumbers turned out delicious. I always take peas for vinaigrette from brain varieties so that they are definitely tasty. This time I used store-bought cabbage. Vinaigrette is the most autumnal and most delicious salad! It contains many vitamins, all very useful. Plus it's incredibly delicious!

The salad turned out amazing, nothing extra! I made my own sauerkraut and used unrefined, aromatic oil, just like my mother used to do when I was a child. I also added pepper to make the taste more piquant. If the salad sits in the refrigerator for 1 hour, it will be even tastier. There was no greenery, unfortunately, it’s difficult to find here in December.

Yummy! To prevent the beets from staining the potatoes, you need to mix all the chopped ingredients with vegetable oil and only then add the beets. This does not affect the taste, only the appearance. And I also add mustard or horseradish

My son ate a vinaigrette in a cafe; it had green apple added, and now he demands that it be prepared only this way. Really delicious, I recommend it!

Yes, they also add prunes, pears, nuts, herring... Not all at once, of course, but as one of the ingredients - there are many compatible products with beets, including different dressings. These are all variations, which is why the vinaigrette is good because it can please almost everyone! He has many fans, but everyone has their own “favorite and unique”, and that’s what the recipe is based on.
