This beet salad is earthy, bright, and creamy, with plenty of fresh herbs and a little lemony tang. It’s especially good after a few hours in the fridge, once everything has had time to come together.

1

Dice beets into small cubes. Boil or steam until soft (easily pierced all the way through with a fork). Drain and let cool to room temperature. 

2

Make dressing. Mix sour cream, olive oil, lemon juice, maple syrup, and spices. Mix until emulsified.

3

Once beets are cooled, add dressing and chopped herbs and onions and mix. Best if you let it marry for a few hours or overnight in the fridge and then let it get back up to room temperature before serving.
