Description
Vinegret is a traditional salad in Russian cuisine. It includes diced cooked vegetables (beets, potatoes, carrots, and beans), chopped onion, and pickles. This salad is vegetarian and gluten-free.
The naming comes from vinaigrette, which is used as a dressing. However, in spite of the name, vinegar is often omitted in modern cooking, and sunflower or other vegetable oil is used.
Along with Olivier salad and dressed herring, vinegret is served as zakuska on celebration tables.
Ingredients: beetroot, potato, carrot, onion, salted cucumbers, green peas, unrefined sunflower oil.
