Beetroot is widely consumed across europe. English recipes suggested pickling beetroot. Northern european recipes discuss some pickling as well boiling. The pickled beetroot salad is popular even in the united states and canada like the pickled beetroot potato salad. In my pickled beetroot salad, the beetroot is pickled and is then combined with fresh cucumber and fresh torn lettuce with tomato avocado mayonnaise dressing. A healthy salad diet.
