Celery Brush Salad
Ingredients:
Celery root – 100 g
Carrots – 100 g
Fresh cucumbers – 100 g
Radish – 100 g
White cabbage – 100 g
Sesame – 10 g
Low-fat yogurt – 2 tbsp. l.
Salt to taste
Peel the vegetables and cut them into small strips. It owes its name to the resulting texture - the salad looks like a brush, which supposedly cleans out all the waste from the intestines. Of course, everything is not so simple and primitive, because the vegetables are chewed and partially digested in the stomach, but they still help digestion.
Add salt, sesame and yogurt to the chopped vegetables and mix. If you don’t like the vegetables too tough, you can wait 5-10 minutes – the salt will make the vegetables softer.
