Sauerkraut and Beetroot Salad

Never gift for Estonian womans red Dianthus…
Today is International Woman Day. Have you heard about this? Necessary and nice holiday with “red background”but with good idea. Celebrate and recognize all woman, not only mothers.
During soviet times we do not celebrated Mothers day, was only Woman day on 8th of the March. Soviet Union was terrible, but about feminism and women rights was everything perfect. Woman was welder,tractor driver,cosmonaut. And not only career at work. Woman took care about household and children. Clothes were washed by hand and shops were not full of punane-nelk-247x300prepared products…:)

In Estonia we have a saying. Woman must be able to feed man and 6 children:)

So,  Viva women!

But what about red Dianthus… These times were not very large choice of cut flowers. Just and mostly only expensive roses and cheaper dianthuses.

So we got them enough 🙂 Thank you! 🙂
Beetroot has been used in Estonian cuisine already since the 17th–18th century.  From then on, beetroot dishes were included among the foods of the pre-war Republic of Estonia.

  2. Hi Ruta, I found you on the map!! The closest I have been to you is Germany and Austria. We would like to go to Sweden and Norway next. You salad looks delicious. It’s good that your daughter called you and asked you how to do this and that, how to make this and that. She did the right thing.
