Step 1
To prepare an unusual vinaigrette, we need to take carrots and potatoes. Peel the carrots and cut them into cubes of equal size.

Step 4
Let it simmer for 3 minutes (after boiling), then add 1.5 tablespoons of vinegar (I used wine vinegar, but table vinegar will work too) to the pot. The vinegar will prevent the potatoes and carrots from turning into a puree.

Step 5
Bake the beet in the microwave. You can also do this in the oven, or simply boil the beet in water in the usual way. Peel the cooked beet and cut it into cubes. Place in a bowl.

Cut the pickled cucumbers into cubes.

Step 7
Drizzle the cucumbers and beets with 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix well. The oil will coat all the beets, preventing them from intensely coloring the other vegetables in the salad.

Step 8
Drain the potatoes and carrots onto a colander. Let the water drain off and rinse the potatoes under running water. The water will stop the cooking process. Add the potatoes and carrots to the salad bowl. Mix well. Combine a small amount of vegetable oil, lemon juice, and ground black pepper. Dress the entire salad with this mixture. Transfer the salad to a serving plate. Place pieces of salted herring on each portion of the salad. I decided to serve the dish with whole pieces of herring, but you can chop the herring and mix it with chopped onion. Place the fish on top of the salad.
