Russian Cabbage And Beet Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Toss 1/2 thinly sliced small red onion with 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar; set aside 10 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon each grainy mustard and honey. Grate 2 carrots and 1 beet on the large holes of a box grater; add to the dressing along with 1/2 thinly sliced small red cabbage and 1/2 cup parsley; season with salt and pepper. Let stand 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Grate the beets on the large holes of a box grater into a large bowl. Add the cabbage and set aside.
• Heat the caraway seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, swirling, until toasted and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oil, vinegar and sugar and stir until the sugar melts. Pour over the beet mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the chives over top.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and cook beets until tender, about 30 minutes. Bring a separate pot of water to a boil and cook potatoes and carrots until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain vegetables, cool, and remove skins. Dice and place in a large bowl.
• Place the diced pickles in the bowl with beets, potatoes, and carrots. Drizzle the olive oil and vinegar over the mixture and toss to coat. Season with salt. Sprinkle with green onions. Chill completely before serving.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the potatoes, carrots, and beets in the boiling water until cooked but still firm, 15 to 20 minutes for the potatoes, 25 to 30 minutes for the carrots, and 40 minutes for the beets. Allow each to cool to the touch before further handling. Remove and discard the skins from the potatoes and beets. Shred the potatoes, carrots, and beets, keeping them separate.
• Arrange about half the onion and half the herring fillets in a layer in the bottom of a bowl. Cover the layer with about half of the grated potatoes, then a layer of about half the carrot, and finally about half the beet. Spread about 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise over the salad; season with salt and pepper. Repeat the layers in the same order to finish building the salad. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour. Serve cold.

Steps:

• Place sliced potatoes and beets in a medium saucepan over high heat; cover with stock, and boil until vegetables are tender. Remove potatoes and beets with a slotted spoon, and reserve stock.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, caraway seeds, and salt; cook until onions become soft and translucent. Then stir in celery, carrots, and cabbage. Mix in reserved stock; cook, covered, until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Add potatoes and beets to the skillet. Season with black pepper and dill weed. Stir in cider vinegar, honey, and tomato puree. Cover, reduce heat to medium low, and simmer at least 30 minutes. Serve topped with sour cream, extra dill weed, and chopped fresh tomatoes.
