WILD ARUGULA AND BEET SALAD WITH ORANGE, WALNUTS AND TARRAGON



Wild Arugula and Beet Salad With Orange, Walnuts and Tarragon image

This is a salad filled with contrasting sweet and peppery flavors. Pungent wild arugula contrasts beautifully with sweet beets, anisy tarragon and juicy oranges. If you can find purslane, it makes a great addition to the salad, with its earthy flavor and almost juicy, delicate crunch. You can use a mix of colors for the beets. I roasted golden and red beets together, and the red beets bled into the outside layer of the golden beets, making their color striking in the salad.

Orange, Roasted Beet, and Arugula Salad image

Dress up an arugula salad with colorful oranges and beets, using this simple recipe from "Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large beet
2 navel oranges
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 bunches arugula, washed well and dried
5 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wrap beet tightly in parchment paper-lined aluminum foil; place on a rimmed baking sheet. Cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 45 to 50 minutes. When cool enough to handle, rub off skins, using paper towels to keep your hands from staining. Cut into wedges.
  • Meanwhile, prepare oranges; Slice off both ends of each with a paring knife. Cut away the peel and white pith, following the curve of the fruit. Holding the fruit over a bowl, cut along membranes to release whole segments. Squeeze juice from membranes into another bowl, and add any accumulated juice from the segments.
  • Add oil, vinegar, and mustard to orange juice; season with salt and pepper, and whisk to combine. Add arugula, and toss to coat with dressing. Divide arugula among four plates. Top with beet wedges, orange segments, and goat cheese. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh beets. If you can't find fresh beets, you can use canned beets, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • To make the salad ahead of time, cook the beets and oranges up to 2 days in advance. Store them separately in the refrigerator.
  • When assembling the salad, be sure to taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • For a vegan version of this salad, omit the feta cheese.
  • You can easily adapt this salad to your own taste preferences. For example, if you like a sweeter salad, add more oranges or honey. If you like a more tangy salad, add more lemon juice.

Conclusion:

Beet salad with arugula and oranges is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. The beets provide a sweet and earthy flavor, the oranges add a bright and citrusy flavor, and the arugula adds a peppery flavor. The feta cheese adds a salty and creamy flavor, and the honey-lemon dressing adds a sweet and tangy flavor. This salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
