Salat Vinaigrette – Ukrainian Beet Salad

Salat Vinaigrette is a Ukrainian beet salad.

Salat vinaigrette is a traditional Ukrainian beet salad. It is the perfect sort of salad to make in the fall and winter, as it features cold weather vegetables. This bright and beautiful salad is a simple and delicious side dish.

A probiotic salad

Originally, I created this recipe as a way of reusing beets that had been fermented into immune boosting kvass or salty beet kvass. I love making kvass in the winter to keep our systems running strong. However, I wanted something to do with the beautiful fermented cubes of beets after the kvass was all finished.

Though the recipe below only calls for one type of fermented vegetable, it is perfect to feature lots of different kinds of fermented vegetables. Try adding at least one of the following fermented vegetables to this salad for a probiotic boost:

  • Pickled beets
  • Fermented carrots
  • Pickled onions
  • Probiotic dill pickles
  • Fermented green peas
