Vinaigrette is a delicious salad made from simple ingredients that every housewife can prepare for lunch or dinner. Depending on your preferences, the salad ingredients can be changed, but the main ones remain unchanged: beets, carrots, potatoes. The secret of the special and unique taste of vinaigrette is mixing salted, pickled and fresh boiled vegetables.
How long to cook vegetables:
IMPORTANT: You can check the readiness of vegetables by piercing them with a sharp thin knife; if they are soft and the tip goes through, the vegetables are ready.
However, the intensity of the fire is different for everyone, so be careful not to overcook the vegetables. Check for doneness a little earlier.
Vinaigrette is a very bright salad due to the fact that beets in its composition provide a coloring pigment. However, many people do not like this feature, which does not appear immediately, but after several hours.
To prevent the salad from being “colored,” you should cut the beets separately and store them in another container (not with the other ingredients).
The ingredients should be mixed only just before serving and in small quantities directly in the plate, after the remaining ingredients have been coated with vegetable oil, which will not allow the beet pigment to quickly spread to other products.
This way the dish will retain all its bright colors (orange, green, white, pink, yellow, brown) and will not be all pink.
The classic recipe consists of the main components (pickled and fresh vegetables) added in equal quantities.

How to decorate:
Boiled vegetables have always been popular in Russian cuisine, often served whole. But under the influence of French cuisine, our chefs began to mix different types, first cutting them into small squares.
The name “vinaigrette” itself rather referred to the special sauce that was used to dress the salad. It consisted of wine vinegar, mustard, sugar, and salt. Currently, numerous dishes are seasoned with this mixture. A modern vinaigrette with a recipe that has survived to this day is seasoned with sunflower oil or mayonnaise.
All housewives involved in cooking know how to prepare a vinaigrette with pickles. But not everyone pays attention to the fact that this dish must be prepared in compliance with certain rules. Vinaigrette is a rather colorful dish, and its aesthetic appearance depends on how the chopped vegetables look. Let's look at the basic rules for preparing the dish.
Rule #1
In order to get a high-quality vinaigrette, you need to balance it a little. To compose the dish, only high-quality products of the same degree of readiness should be used. If during the cooking period the potatoes fall apart and become loose, then such a vegetable is not recommended for slicing into a salad. It's best to leave the ingredients a little undercooked, otherwise they will turn the vinaigrette into mush. Also, do not cut into vinaigrette those that are too watery as they will create excess moisture.
Rule #2
All necessary products must be taken in equal proportions. Potatoes should not dominate the recipe, despite the fact that they are the basis of the dish. If the amount of salad is made based on one can of green peas, then the remaining ingredients are calculated at the same rate.
Rule #3
In order for the dish to have a high aesthetic appearance, it is necessary to prevent the beet juice from staining the ingredients. To do this, place the chopped beets in a separate container and add vegetable oil to it. A thin film of oil will stop the color from spreading and protect the rest of the vegetables from staining.
A culinary recipe for making vinaigrette is always evaluated according to two parameters - taste and aesthetic appearance of the dish. The second point should not be neglected, even if the food is being prepared for a regular family dinner. A good housewife should always follow the rule of balancing taste and appearance.
In order to prepare a vinaigrette, you need to boil three vegetables in their jackets (potatoes, carrots, beets). All these ingredients are taken in equal quantities. Beets take much longer to cook than other vegetables, so it is recommended to cook them separately.
After all the vegetables have been peeled, they need to be cut into equal cubes. It is best to do this manually, since using various devices is not always effective.
To the chopped vegetables add a can of green peas, onions to taste and, of course, pickled cucumber. It is advisable to use barrel options. Some housewives add sauerkraut to the salad, but this is not necessary.
The finished vinaigrette with pickles, the recipe for which is described above, is seasoned with unrefined sunflower oil.

Dear readers, another important and useful news from my blogging mentor Denis Povag. I recommend it to those who want to earn money:
Vinaigrette is a simple, tasty and healthy vegetable dish that can be easily prepared at home. Today there are a huge number of options for preparing vinaigrette. The main ingredients of the dish are beets, potatoes, carrots, onions, sauerkraut, pickled cucumbers, and canned peas. Vegetable oil is used as a dressing. The appetizer can also be supplemented with mushrooms, herring, beans, and crab sticks.
Vinaigrette is very popular not only in the CIS countries, but also in Europe. Although the dish is considered Russian, similar salads are present in the cuisines of Scandinavia, France, and Germany. Vinaigrette can be consumed by people on a diet. Thanks to the presence of vegetables in the recipe, the salad helps normalize metabolism and has a beneficial effect on the gastrointestinal tract.
There is an opinion that the vinaigrette was created at the court of Tsar Alexander the First. A cook from France (Antoine Careme), who worked in the royal kitchen, saw his Russian colleagues pouring vinegar over chopped vegetables and asked: “vinaigre?”, which translated meant vinegar. Since Russian chefs did not understand French well, they decided that this was the name of the dish, but Antoine only wanted to make sure that vinegar was used as a dressing for preparing the dish. Since then, vegetable salad has been called vinaigrette.
This is probably the most popular version of vinaigrette, which is most often prepared by housewives in many homes. Vinaigrette is largely associated not only with beets, but also with the addition of, in addition to potatoes and carrots, green peas and pickled or pickled cucumbers. It is the last ingredients that give this salad that very recognizable taste.
In order to reduce the cooking time, use purchased, already cooked and chopped vegetables, which are sold in special sealed packaging.
1. For a tasty vinaigrette, where the onion will not taste bitter or burn, you need to marinate it. Cut the peeled onion into medium cubes. Pour 0.5 liters of water into a bowl, add 2 tablespoons of vinegar and the same amount of sugar. Place chopped onion in a bowl with water, vinegar and sugar. Leave for an hour.
2. While the onions are pickling, cut the beets first into slices and then into small cubes. Brush the beets with vegetable oil. This must be done so that it does not release a lot of juice and color other vegetables.
3. Cut the peeled potatoes into 2 parts, then cut into slices, then chop into cubes.
4. Cut the pickled cucumbers and peeled carrots, as well as all the vegetables (into cubes).
5. Combine all chopped ingredients in one large saucepan. Add peas to the container.
6. Rinse the pickled onions under cold water and add them to the pan.
7. Wash the green onions and cut them into small pieces and add them to the vegetable mixture. Mix all the ingredients of the dish.
This vinaigrette can be stored undressed for up to several days in the refrigerator. Take it out as desired and eat it for lunch and dinner. Very healthy and tasty.
The salad appeared as a result of the fusion of two dishes - “herring under a fur coat” and the traditional “vinaigrette”. In the vinaigrette, instead of herring fillets, you can use preserved food, because it is often easier to buy in any store.
1. To prevent onions from becoming bitter in a dish, marinate them. To do this, peel the onion, chop finely, and place in a bowl. Add salt, sugar, water, vinegar to it. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes.
2. For the vinaigrette, you need to prepare the vegetables in advance. Boil them in their skins and cool. Then peel off the skin. First peel the boiled beets, potatoes and carrots and then cut them into medium cubes.
3. Check the herring fillet for seeds. Then chop into medium cubes.
4. Cut the pickled cucumbers into small cubes.
5. Place all the chopped vegetables in a deep bowl. Drain the pickled onions and place them in a bowl.
7. Use a mixture of vinegar and vegetable oil as a dressing. Pour in its container.
8. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. The salad should sit for an hour.
Place the dish in a salad bowl, sprinkle with finely chopped herbs and serve. Bon appetit!
When preparing this dish, you can use not only white, but also red beans. If you don't want to cook beans, use canned beans. Unlike previous recipes, here we will use fresh cucumbers. This salad will be more useful for those who cannot eat salted and pickled vegetables because of their pungency.
Instead of flax oil, it is allowed to season the vinaigrette with sesame, olive or sunflower oil. Use a ceramic knife to cut vegetables to retain more vitamins.
1. Soak the beans overnight to plump them up. Drain the water from it. Place the beans in a saucepan of cold water and simmer until tender, 40 minutes.
2. Boil beets, potatoes and carrots. Cook them with the lid closed. You can check the readiness of vegetables by piercing them with a fork. They must be pierced through. Remove the vegetables from the pan and wait until they cool. Peel the vegetables.
3. Cut carrots, beets and potatoes into cubes. Mix ingredients in a saucepan.
4. Add cooked beans to the vegetables. Drain the water from them first. Chop the cucumbers into medium-sized cubes and add them too.
5. Finely chop the green onions. Chop the dill. Add onion and dill to vegetables. Add salt to taste. You can add a little freshly ground black pepper.
6. Pour freshly squeezed lemon juice into the pan. Add oil and stir vinaigrette. Leave it to sit for a while. The flavors of all the vegetables will mix and it will only taste better.
A very tasty and fresh vinaigrette is ready. The abundance of greens and fresh cucumber makes it very healthy, crunchy, suitable for both children and adults. Eat healthy.
An excellent visual example of how such a simple salad is prepared. Very appetizing and understandable. In addition, a new tasty ingredient appears - sour apple, which greatly enriches the taste. I highly recommend you try making this salad.
This recipe uses beans to replace canned peas. And sauerkraut is added. It will give its sourness and pleasant crunch to the salad, which many people love so much. The classic balance of the right vinaigrette will be maintained, but with other ingredients. There are fans of both cucumber salad, but there are also those who prefer this option the most. In any case, the best thing to do is try and prepare different options. If you have homemade sauerkraut at home, then this option is a must. But if you like both cabbage and cucumbers, then add them to the vinaigrette together, the taste will only benefit from this.
1. Pickle the onions. To prepare the marinade, pour vinegar, water into a saucepan, add salt, sugar, bay leaf, peppercorns and cloves. Place the container on the stove and wait until the liquid boils.
2. After the marinade boils, remove it from the stove and place the onion cut into half rings into it. It should be completely covered with liquid. Cover the saucepan with a lid and set aside for an hour.
3. Peel, wash, and cut potatoes, carrots and beets into small cubes. Pour oil into a deep frying pan, then place the beets and mix them thoroughly so that every piece is covered in oil. Place the carrots on top of the beets in an even layer; do not mix them. Spread the potatoes over the carrot layer. Pour in 4 tbsp. l. water. Cover the pan with a lid. Simmer vegetables for 5 minutes. over high heat.
4. Remove the container from the heat and set it aside without opening the lid. The vegetables should remain in this position for half an hour.
5. Chop the pickled cucumbers into cubes. Place them in a small bowl. Add strained cabbage. Add beans or peas. Add the pickled onions without liquid into the container.
6. To prepare the dressing, drain the broth from the stewed vegetables, add salt, sugar and mustard, stir.
7. Combine all vegetables and dressing in a salad bowl. Mix the future wingret thoroughly. Cover the container with cling film and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. During this time, the salad will infuse, all ingredients will be well saturated with the sauce and the taste of each other.
The finished vinaigrette is served cold or at room temperature. Place it beautifully in a salad bowl or using special rings in portions on plates. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve. Very tasty and incredibly healthy, because it contains only vegetables. Bon appetit!
Vinaigrette is prepared exclusively from raw vegetables. This dish will help you maintain a slim figure and saturate your body with useful micro- and macroelements. In this version, potatoes are not used, since they are not eaten raw; zucchini will replace them. The rest of the vegetables are perfectly digestible in their raw form, and therefore the salad will bring a lot of benefits.
This salad should not contain canned vegetables. You can add fresh tomatoes, arugula, sour apple, and sour apple to it. To season the dish, you can use sesame, flaxseed, olive oil, and pomegranate juice.
1. Wash thoroughly and then peel raw vegetables.
2. Cut the beets, carrots, and zucchini into medium cubes. Approximately the same as you usually cut into a vinaigrette or Olivier salad.
3. Place all the chopped vegetables in a bowl. Add peas. It can be fresh or frozen, in which case it will need to be defrosted in advance.
4. Finely chop the cabbage. Cut the cucumbers into bars. Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Then scoop out the pulp with a spoon. Cut it into cubes like other vegetables.
5. Chop the onion into small pieces, chop the dill. Add the greens last.
6. Add oil, mix ingredients.
7. Pass a clove of garlic through a garlic press and add to the vegetables. Squeeze the juice from the lemon. Pour it into the salad, stir.
Fresh, tasty and crispy vinaigrette is ready. Very unusual, but extremely healthy and tasty. Great for harvest season when all the vegetables are in their juice.
Pickled mushrooms are an excellent substitute for pickled cucumbers. The salad is especially tasty with white or black milk mushrooms. You can also use other mushrooms (honey mushrooms, porcini mushrooms, boletus). If the season has been productive and you have prepared salted or pickled mushrooms at home, then you can use them. Otherwise, buy your favorite pickled mushrooms from the store. It can be honey mushrooms, champignons, or even a mixture of wild mushrooms.
1. Boil potatoes, carrots and beets in advance. Beets must be cooked in their skins so that they do not lose their color. But potatoes and carrots can be boiled without their skins and even cut into cubes to make it faster. Cut all the boiled vegetables into cubes and place in a salad bowl of a suitable size.
2. Cut the onion into small pieces and place in a container. If the onion is too hot and bitter, then this can be corrected by scalding it with boiling water and holding it in hot water for literally 2 minutes. After this, drain the water and the onion is no longer hot.
3. Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and allow excess liquid to drain. If you use pickled honey mushrooms, you can rinse them a little so that the viscous thick marinade does not spoil the consistency of the salad. If you use large mushrooms, chop them and place them in a salad bowl.
4. Add green peas to the salad. Sprinkle with fresh lemon juice. Salt the contents of the salad bowl. Season the vegetables with vegetable oil and stir.
Taste the vinaigrette to determine whether you need to add salt or not. If you wish, you can add a little vinegar for sourness, but pickled mushrooms will already give it a little. Determine everything to your taste. You can serve immediately or let it sit for about an hour.
Sauerkraut is traditionally used in this salad. It goes well with pickled cucumbers, and you can also add it instead to add sourness to the dish.
Vinaigrette with the addition of cabbage is considered dietary. It contains low-calorie and easily digestible foods that can cleanse the intestines of toxins. For greens, use dill, parsley or green onions.
1. Wash the potatoes, carrots and beets and boil them until tender. Wait until the root vegetables have cooled, then remove the skins from them.
2. Squeeze the cabbage from the liquid. If necessary, rinse it under cold water. Then chop a little with a knife so that the pieces are not too large.
3. Place the peas on a sieve to drain the brine.
4. Peel the onion. Rinse the greens under running water.
5. On a cutting board, chop the potatoes, carrots and beets into cubes. Finely chop the onion.
6. Mix root vegetables in a salad bowl. Add peas to the chopped vegetables, then cabbage.
Decorate the finished vinaigrette with herbs.
Perhaps you have already prepared a vinaigrette with herring and it seemed to you something similar to Herring under a fur coat. Her lazy version. But now let's add another unexpected fish ingredient to the salad, which not only will not harm the taste, but will also make the vinaigrette much more interesting. Crab sticks add juiciness and satiety to the vinaigrette.
Crab sticks go well with apple, so you can also add it to the dish only in small quantities.
1. Cut the peeled onion into large cubes. Scald the onion with hot water and leave it for 15 minutes, so the excess bitterness will disappear from it.
2. Cut the boiled potatoes, carrots, and beets into cubes. Chop the crab sticks into small pieces. Cut the cucumbers into cubes of the same size. In a beautiful salad, all ingredients should be cut equally.
3. Mix all the vegetables in a salad bowl and add the onions. Add peas.
4. Chop the herring into small pieces. If it is a whole fish, then do not forget to clean it of films and bones. The finished fillet is easy to cut.
5. Stir the contents of the container.
6. Chop the dill and green onions and add to the salad. As a dressing, use mayonnaise in the amount of 2-3 tablespoons to your taste. Garnish with sprigs of greenery and you can serve on the festive table.
It is very unusual and unusual to find such an ingredient as chicken in a vinaigrette. Still, most often it is a purely vegetable salad. But the variation is worth trying. At least chicken goes well with both potatoes and beets. Moreover, it is no worse than herring, which not everyone loves.
For such a vinaigrette, you can prepare mustard dressing, with it the dish will become more aromatic and juicy.
1. Take a medium-sized saucepan and place beets, carrots and potatoes in it. Cover the vegetables with water and cook until tender. The cooking process will take approximately 2 hours.
2. Boil chicken fillet in salted water. Take it out to cool so that by the time you cut the salad it will no longer be hot. You can put it in the refrigerator.
3. When the vegetables have cooled, remove the skins from them. Cut the root vegetables and cucumber into cubes and place in separate bowls.
4. Cut the boiled meat into medium pieces. Take a bowl and place all the chopped ingredients into it. Add salt, pepper, oil, stir.
Place the finished vinaigrette beautifully on plates and garnish with chopped parsley.
