Smoked Salmon, Potato & Beet Salad

February 18, 2019 by Lovoni | 1 Comment

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

No matter the time of year a main meal salad is always a good choice for dinner: especially if its ingredients include: succulent, hot smoked salmon, crunchy roasted baby potatoes, pickled beets, crisp green beans & a creamy caper & horseradish dressing. Serve Smoked Salmon, Potato & Beet Salad with some homemade artisan bread & a decent pinot noir & you’ve got yourself a dinner that’s quite magical.

I’m still doing my Aldi Challenge for the month of February. All the ingredients for the salad came from Aldi apart from the horseradish because I wasn’t going to buy more when I had a full bottle. Aldi’s sell horseradish sauce – I used horseradish cream.

It’s the dressing that often makes a good salad. This simple mayonnaise- based salad dressing with lemon juice, capers & horseradish pairs perfectly with salmon & beets – the main flavor components of the salad.

Salmon & beets are made for each other. And if you’ve not enjoyed the two ingredients together in one meal – you need to. With the rich oiliness of salmon & beets’ distinct earthy flavor, these two are symphonic together.

Hot smoked salmon, as the name implies, is smoked by heat giving it a very similar, although slightly more robust, texture to baked or grilled salmon but with that addictive smokiness I love so much. Cold smoked salmon is silky in texture & quite luxurious to eat. Try cold smoked salmon in this avocado & egg toast recipe or smoked salmon & asparagus pasta salad.

It’s March next week. That means spring is on its way. I’m sure there’s several more soups days before it arrives, but knowing we’re on the homestretch of winter is uplifting. I long to feel the warm sun on my skin, potter in the garden, enjoy wholesome salads & grill outside without the four layers of clothing. Enjoy this salad, it’s a keeper. Toodles, Lovoni xo

Studio makeover. My studio needed a makeover & new Studio makeover. My studio needed a makeover & new windowsills after some water damage last year (we had to get the roof replaced). So it seemed like a good time to turn my studio into a more inspiring room that matched the rest of the house. I have props in cupboards around the house but wanted the ones I use the most in the studio. I used the top of a hutch (cupboard) I already had from @summerhousefarm & the bottom from @oldetymemarketplace. 
Still a few things to do but back at it tomorrow. I’m going to try and share the ‘before’ otherwise I’ll share it in my stories.
