Pantzarosalata - παντζαροσαλάτα
(Greek Cream of beetroot)
RECIPE IN PREPARATION
Among the many creams that flavor the table in Greece, there is this yogurt and beetroot sauce that, personally, I find very intriguing.
Soon I will insert the photographic sequence and the complete recipe.
For the moment I will only list the ingredients.
Clearly it is only personal taste that can establish the right proportions:
I like it this way!

In a nutshell… all the ingredients are passed to the mixer, leaving the beets aside.
Then add the beets into small pieces and mix until you get a cream.
Only then add the yogurt, stirring gently with a spoon.
Adjust oil, salt and pepper if necessary.
Keep cool for at least half an hour and then serve!

None of the recipes that I then consulted the reports;
I also report it because, although it is perhaps an exception, I almost prefer it to the original!
