Tip: Beets in different colors are available at Rema1000 in bulk for almost nothing, and the great thing is that you can buy just the amount you need and avoid food waste. But can you even use raw beets in a salad, you might wonder? The answer is yes! They just need to be sliced very thinly, and they taste wonderful in a salad; crispy and sweet and delightful combined with the tangy and more bitter elements.
