German Beet Salad with Caraway Seeds

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this tasty salad:

  • 4 medium beets
  • 2 tablespoons caraway seeds
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Let’s get cookin’! Follow these steps to put together your beet salad:

  1. Start by washing the beets under cold water. You want to remove any dirt and debris. Then, place them in a pot of boiling water. Let them simmer for about 30-40 minutes or until they’re tender enough to poke through with a fork.
  2. Once cooked, drain the beets and let them cool. Once they’re cool enough to handle, peel off the skin (it should come off easily) and then cut them into bite-sized cubes.
  3. In a small frying pan, toast the caraway seeds over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes—just until they start to pop and the aroma fills the air. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn!
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the chopped red onion and the toasted caraway seeds to the dressing.
  5. Gently fold in the beet cubes, making sure they get evenly coated with that flavorful dressing.
  6. Let the salad sit for about 30 minutes at room temperature to let those flavors meld together. You can also chill it in the fridge if you prefer it cold.
  7. When you’re ready to serve, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top for that final touch!

And there you have it—a beautiful, flavorful German Beet Salad with Caraway Seeds that’s bound to impress at your next meal. Enjoy every bite of this colorful dish!
