SWEET BEET CITRUS SALAD


 
If you never had raw beets before, you will be amazed how delicious this salad is. Adapted from Meghan Telner's recipe [the link no longer works], I couldn’t believe how good this simple salad turned pout to be. This one is a keeper.

SWEET BEET CITRUS SALAD
2 carrots
1 long beet
little juice from a fresh orange
little juice from fresh lemon
1 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
sesame seeds for garnish
 
• Peel the carrots and the beet, cutting off the tops and discard.
• Using a manual grater or the grater attachment of a food processor, grate the carrots and beets separately.
• Place the grated carrots and the beets in a salad bowl.
• Cut an orange and a lemon in half.
• Squeeze some fresh orange and lemon juice over the vegetables.
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with raw or lightly toasted sesame seeds.
 and serve.
• This can be served right of way, but will get even better in a couple of hours.

It began with posting a few recipes on line for the family. "zsuzsa is in the kitchen" has more than 1000 Hungarian and International recipes. What started out as a private project turned into a well visited blog. The number of visitors long passed the two million mark. I organized the recipes into an on-line cookbook. On top of the page click on "ZSUZSA'S COOKBOOK". From there click on any of the chapters to access the recipes. For the archive just scroll to the bottom of the page. I am not profiting from my blog, so visitors are not harassed with advertising or flashy gadgets. The recipes are not broken up with photos at every step. Where needed the photos are placed following the recipe. Feel free to cut and paste my recipes for your own use. Publication is permitted as long as it is in your own words and with your own photographs. However, I would ask you for an acknowledgement and link-back to my blog. Happy cooking!
