Directions
Moroccan Red Beet Salad, Another recipe from the kitchen of Momma Simo This is my best guess from watching her make it I have since tried this at home with measuring and this is pretty darn close There is one optional ingredient which while not terribly authentic works really well in this dish , I’ve always been a fan of the exceptionally tangy pickled beets as made by the Pennsylvania Dutch As I was making this Moroccan Beet Salad yesterday, I tasted the dressing and expected something similar However, after putting the dressing on the beets and letting it sit a few hours, I was surprised how very mild the result was I went back and made a second batch of dressing, effectively doubling that part of the recipe When I later served it for dinner, I was unimpressed However, today, after sitting overnight, it is tasting better although still not as tangy as I would prefer I would recommend doubling the dressing and making this a day ahead so it really has time to blend , This was great! I added some sliced shallots and it was a hit at the seder! Thanks!
