We had some leftover roasted beets from the farmer’s market, a ton of apples from our apple tree and freshly prepared horseradish, so I decided to mix up two of the recipes in Latviešu ēdieni so we could take advantage of our supply. Besides, never allow a recipe to preach at you — pay attention to what you need to use, what looks good and what’s fresh. Substitutions are better than wasting food or using unripe or bad.

This recipe is excellent on its own, but I think it still needs some tweaking. In particular, it needs some hard-boiled egg, which we didn’t have time to cook by the time we realized it, so I’ve added that into the recipe.
