Quinoa is added to this salad by Denis Krupenya, chef of Wine & Crab restaurant, to make it more filling. If you can't find any black groats before the holidays, regular yellow-golden quinoa will do, but adding dark caviar has a special effect: the black grains look like black eggs in the salad thicket. Marinated kohlrabi is also an important decorative element. Thinly sliced and marinated in beetroot juice with spices, it loses its residual bitterness, and the crispy crimson circles resemble Christmas tree balls.
