Vinegret (Russian: Винегрет) or Russian Vinaigrette is a salad in Russian and Ukrainian cuisines. It includes diced cooked vegetables (beetroots potatoes carrots) chopped onions as well as sauerkraut аnd/or brined pickles. Other ingredients such as green peas or beans are sometimes also added. The naming comes from vinaigrette which is used as a dressing. However in spite of the name vinegar is often omitted in home cooking and sunflower or other vegetable oil is just used.
