The Russian cuisine reflects the ethnic diversity of Russia and the influences of the western cuisines.\u00a0 In the 18th century, the Russian aristocracy brought French chefs to Russia, thus transforming the classic Russian cuisine.\u00a0 Vinaigrette, a classic French salad dressing prepared with oil and vinegar, inspired the name of the Russian Vinegret.\u00a0 The Vinegret, a traditional Russian salad, is made with the beets, carrots, potatoes, peas, onions and pickles, and flavored with olive oil and vinegar.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During our visit to Saint Petersburg in Russia, we degust the classic Vinegret in the upscale Tsar Restaurant that serves a superb traditional Russian cuisine.\u00a0 Our recipe recreates the flavorful Vinegret we degusted as we traveled through Russia.\u00a0 We use organic vegetables, firm-textured new yellow potatoes and Russian style pickles.\u00a0 The Vinegret (\u0432\u0438\u043d\u0435\u0433\u0440\u0435\u0442), an easy to make vegetable salad, is nutritious, colorful and delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beets \u2013 6 medium size
Carrots \u2013 4 medium size
Frozen Green Peas \u2013 150 grams
New Yellow Potatoes \u2013 3 medium size
Pickles \u2013 4
White Onion \u2013 \u00bd medium size  
Extra Virgin Olive Oil \u2013 2 tablespoons 
White Vinegar \u2013 6 tablespoons  
Sea Salt \u2013 1 teaspoon or to taste <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the large pot bring water to a boil, add the beets with their skin, then boil on medium heat for around 45 minutes.  Remove the boiled beets from the pot and leave them to cool down.  Peel the beets and cut them into small cubes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In a separate pot, boil the potatoes and the carrots with their skin for 15 minutes on medium heat.  The vegetables need to be firm when pierced with a knife (the vegetables should not be too soft).  Remove the vegetables from the pot and leave them to cool down.  Peel the potatoes and the carrots and cut them into small cubes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cut the onions and pickles into small cubes.  Defrost the green peas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly until the salad is well-integrated.  Serve the Vinegret immediately! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
