Either toss this salad together as in the recipe or arrange the ingredients in individual piles on a platter and drizzle with dressing. Be sure to buy boneless pickled herring to save on time and cleanup.

Ingredients

  • 2 beets, (about 12 oz/375 g)
  • 3 Yukon Gold potatoes, (about 1-1/2 lb/750 g)
  • 1 crisp tart apple, (such as Granny Smith)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 jar (320ml) boneless pickled herring slices, drained and halved crosswise
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • Dressing:
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp dry mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Preparation

In saucepan of boiling salted water, cover and cook beets until tender, about 35 minutes. Drain, reserving 2 tbsp (25 mL) beet liquid for dressing; let cool.

Meanwhile, in separate saucepan of boiling salted water, cover and cook potatoes until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.

Peel potatoes and beets; cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes. Core apple; dice and toss with lemon juice.

In bowl, combine potatoes, beets, apple, herring and onion.

Dressing: In small bowl, whisk together sour cream, reserved beet liquid, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper until smooth. Pour over salad, tossing to combine. Sprinkle with dill.
