Shuba is a layered salad popular in Russian and Ukrainian cuisine. Instead of herring, we love to use smoked salmon.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
If you want to cook your own beets: In one pot, place beets in boiling water (enough water to cover the beets). Boil ⏱️ 1 hour, or until soft when pierced with a knife. The cooking time varies depending on your beets. Some will cook sooner than others, so test all of them. When cooked, remove from boiling water and let cool to room temperature. Peel the cooked beets (I use gloves for this).
2
In a separate pot, boil whole potatoes and carrots ⏱️ 30 minutes, or until smooth when pierced with a knife. Don't overcook. When cooked, remove from boiling water and let cool to room temperature. Peel the cooked potatoes and carrots. It's easiest to peel carrots by putting a slit down the length of the carrot and peeling in a circle around the carrot.

Place eggs in another pot of salted cold water and bring them to a boil. Once the water is boiling, place the lid on, turn heat off and let the pot sit on the same burner for ⏱️ 15 minutes. (Or you can throw them in with your potatoes and carrots and fish them out after ⏱️ 15 minutes. Let eggs cool to room temperature. Peel the eggs.
