German Beet Salad with Caraway Seeds

This is a traditional German beet salad with a simple apple cider vinegar dressing and caraway seeds. You can also make it with roasted beets, but in Germany the beets are usually boiled.

Step: 1

Place beets in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer until beets can easily be pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes. Drain and cool slightly. Peel and slice beets; place into a large bowl.

Step: 2

Combine apple cider vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and pour over beets. Mix well. Add caraway seeds and mix again. Allow to chill 2 hours before serving.
