Preparing the ingredients. To prepare this salad, you can also use pine nuts, they will give it a pleasant taste. But even without them, the salad turns out delicious and even more tender. The soft variety of goat cheese also gives tenderness to the salad. Olive oil and balsamic vinegar give a special pleasant taste and aroma to the dish, as well as these ingredients remove the specific taste of beetroot.
