For a richer flavor, use homemade mayonnaise. Feel free to add a splash of vinegar for extra tang. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
A vibrant and refreshing salad featuring the earthy sweetness of beets, balanced by the creamy tang of mayonnaise and mustard. This colorful dish is a delightful accompaniment to any meal, adding a touch of brightness and flavor.
In a large pot, combine the beets and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 30 minutes, or until the beets are slightly tender.
Add the potatoes to the pot and continue to cook for another 30 minutes.
Add the carrots and continue boiling until all the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the vegetables and allow them to cool until they can be handled comfortably.
Once cooled, cut the beets, potatoes, and carrots into evenly sized cubes. Place them in a serving bowl.
Gently stir in the mayonnaise and mustard, ensuring that all the vegetables are well coated. Adjust the amount of mayonnaise and mustard to your preference.
Serve warm or chilled, as desired.
