Trangtsel: How to Cook Tibetan Salad

Our friend and guest chef Tsering Tamding la has created a beautiful version of Trangtsel, with a refreshingly simple earthy and yet fresh flavor.
Trang tsel literally means “cold vegetables” and is the Tibetan version of a fresh salad. Cold foods are quite rare in high, cold Tibet, where fresh vegetables have not traditionally been available, and trang tsel is not something that most Tibetans inside Tibet have ever commonly eaten.

To make it more distinctively Tibetan, I'd mix Yemma with the black pepper.

Wouldn’t it be necessary to cook the beets before adding them to the salad?

Some varieties of very young beets can be eaten raw.
