Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 red beets, scrubbed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Dressing:
1 small shallot, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Juice of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon roasted hazelnut oil
Salad:
4 cups baby kale
1 avocado, sliced
2 tangerines, segmented
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup hazelnuts, toasted and chopped

Steps:

  • For the beets: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Toss together the beets, oil, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a baking dish. Roast until the beets are easily pierced with a fork, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool. Once cool, the skin should easily peel off. Cut the beets in quarters and set aside.
  • For the dressing: Combine the shallots, orange juice, honey, mustard, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Mix well. Slowly add the olive oil and hazelnut oil, while whisking. Set aside.
  • For the salad: On a large platter, assemble the salad. Dress the kale with 2 tablespoons of the dressing and add to the platter. Separately dress the beets with 2 tablespoons of the dressing; the beets will stain the other ingredients so keep them separate until ready to toss. Add the beets to the platter on top of the dressed kale. Top the beets with the avocado slices, tangerine segments, goat cheese crumbles and hazelnuts. Drizzle the platter with the remaining dressing and gently toss.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

24 baby orange beets
2 tablespoons pine nuts
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
8 tangerines
4 small shallots, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°. Put the beets in a roasting pan, cover with foil and bake them for about 1 hour, until they are tender. When they are cool enough to handle, peel and quarter the beets.
  • In a pie plate, toss the pine nuts with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil and toast them in the oven for about 3 minutes, until the pine nuts are golden brown.
  • Using a sharp knife, peel the tangerines. Working over a medium bowl, slice in between the membranes to release the tangerine sections. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into a small bowl; you should have 1/2 cup.
  • In another small bowl, toss the sliced shallots and raspberry vinegar with a pinch of salt and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in the 1/2 cup of tangerine juice and the remaining 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and season the dressing with salt.

Tips:

  • Selecting the Best Beets: Choose beets that are firm, smooth, and have a deep red color. Avoid beets that are blemished or have soft spots.
  • Roasting Beets: Roasting beets intensifies their flavor and sweetness. To roast beets, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Wrap beets individually in foil packets and roast for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Peeling Beets: Once beets are roasted, allow them to cool slightly. Then, use your hands to rub off the skin. Alternatively, you can use a paring knife to peel the beets.
  • Slicing Beets: For salads, slice beets into thin rounds or wedges. For other dishes, such as soups or stews, you can dice or grate the beets.
  • Storing Beets: Cooked beets can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Roasted beets can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
