Notes

Beetroot dip is guaranteed to be a success at parties. However, not everyone is a fan of the taste of beetroot. That’s why I use the pre-cooked ones for these pure dishes and I provide some strong seasonings. In this recipe I work with anise aroma extract. The idea comes from a dish I made years ago based on a beetroot curry with regaliz, liquorice. At first glance, this seems like a strange combination, but it gives the beetroot a fresh touch. In addition, beetroot has many positive properties. For example, it stimulates digestion and supports the liver and detoxification process. Regularly adding beetroot to your dishes will certainly benefit your body… “espero que te guste” Patricia X
