For today, I deliberately chose this colorful dish, because colors are important to our lives, to our mood. In addition, it is a meal made from simple ingredients and beetroot is considered a superfood. The reddish color of this sweet-sour-flavored vegetable is caused by betanin, which prevents the development of arterial coronation and promotes liver function. Beetroot cleanses the blood, helps to regulate the metabolism and even provokes a more optimistic mood and this is something we all need in these strange times.
