A step-by-step recipe for making a winter vegetable salad:
1. Pre-boil the beets with carrots until soft. This can be done in one saucepan. The carrots will be cooked earlier, so remove them from the pot and continue cooking the beets. Cool the vegetables well afterwards. The cooking and cooling process will take you at least 4 hours. Therefore, prepare the vegetables well in advance. After the beets, peel and cut into cubes.
2. Next, peel the boiled carrots and also cut into cubes.
3. Peel the pumpkin, remove the fibers and seeds, then chop like the previous vegetables. In this recipe, pumpkin is used raw. However, if you wish, you can boil or bake it, but then it should be borne in mind that the vegetable will not keep its shape, but may turn into a puree-like substance when the ingredients are mixed.
4. Add sauerkraut to vegetables. Squeeze it out of the brine beforehand. Also add cucumbers and green onions. I have frozen cucumbers with onions, so I add them without defrosting. Season the ingredients with vegetable oil, salt to taste and stir. The salad can be served immediately after preparation or kept in the refrigerator for some time.
