Korean raw beetroot salad with onion and garlic

It is prepared very simply, the taste is moderately sharp. It turns out there are a lot of beetroot recipes in Korean, this recipe was shared with me by a family of Koreans who have been living in Russia for a long time. This is how they prepared it in their homeland, but it has already been adapted to taste for the Slavs. The sharpness can be adjusted or not add a burning pepper at all. We are more popular and already like native carrots in Korean, but beetroot has an equally interesting taste and can rightfully take its rightful place in our menu. Try it, I think that many people may like this dish.
