BALSAMIC ROASTED BEET SALAD

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 medium-size beets, tops removed and scrubbed
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup good olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, such as Grey Poupon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces baby arugula
1/3 cup roasted, salted Marcona almonds, toasted
4 ounces soft goat cheese, such as Montrachet, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Wrap the beets individually in aluminum foil and place them on a sheet pan. Roast them for 50 minutes to 1 hour, depending on their size, until a small sharp knife inserted in the middle indicates that they are tender. Unwrap each beet and set aside for 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Peel the beets with a small, sharp knife over a piece of parchment paper to prevent staining your cutting board.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and set aside. While the beets are still warm, cut each one in half and then each half into 4 to 6 wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl. As you're cutting the beets, toss them with half of the vinaigrette (warm beets absorb more vinaigrette), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Taste for seasonings.
  • Place the arugula in a separate bowl and toss it with enough vinaigrette to moisten. Put the arugula on a serving platter and then arrange the beets, almonds, and goat cheese on top. Drizzle with additional vinaigrette, if desired, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 medium beets (about 2 pounds total)
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup canola or other vegetable oil
6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, to taste
1 teaspoon coarse (kosher) salt
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • 2. Trim the beets, leaving on the skin, an inch of the stem, and the wispy "tail" on the bottom of each, then scrub and drain. Place the beets in a small casserole dish just big enough to hold them. Pour the water and canola oil over the beets then cover tightly with a lid or aluminum foil and bake until tender and easily pierced with a sharp paring knife, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • 3. Remove the casserole from the oven and uncover the beets, keeping your face averted from the escaping steam. Allow the beets to cool completely in the casserole.
  • 4. Meanwhile, combine the vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, the salt, and pepper in a medium-size bowl and whisk to blend. Taste and add more olive oil, if desired.
  • 5. Peel the cooled beets with the back of a paring knife and cut into 3/8-inch slices. Add to the dressing in the bowl and toss gently but thoroughly to coat. Serve immediately or marinate, in the refrigerator, for up to 24 hours.

BEET GREENS WITH BACON AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR



Beet Greens With Bacon and Balsamic Vinegar image

This recipe is in my hubby's top 5 favorite! He is notorious for picking out the beet bunches at the farmer's market by looking at the tops without even checking out the actual beets at the bottom. Easy to make and tasty with or without the added roasted beet roots. Time does not include the beet root roasting time.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED BEETS



Balsamic-Glazed Beets image

Categories     Thanksgiving     Valentine's Day     Vinegar     Beet     Gourmet

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 1/2 pounds beets (4 pounds with green attached, reserving greens for another use), scrubbed and trimmed, leaving about 1 inch of stems attached
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan cover beets with salted water by 1 inch. Simmer beets, covered, 35 to 45 minutes, or until tender, and drain in a colander. Cool beets until they can be handled and slip off skins and stems. Cut beets lengthwise into wedges. Beets may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring beets to room temperature before proceeding.
  • In a large skillet stir together vinegar, syrup or honey, and oil and add beets. Cook beet mixture with salt and pepper to taste over moderate heat, stirring, until heated through and coated well. Sprinkle about half of thyme over beets and toss gently.
  • Serve beets sprinkled with remaining thyme.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are small to medium in size, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Smaller beets tend to be more tender and flavorful.
  • Roast the beets whole: Roasting the beets whole helps to concentrate their natural sugars and flavors. Simply wrap each beet in foil and roast at 400°F for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: The balsamic vinegar is a key component of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a balsamic vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years and has a thick, syrupy consistency.
  • Add some herbs and spices: To enhance the flavor of the beets, you can add some fresh herbs and spices to the roasting pan. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, garlic, and peppercorns.
  • Let the beets cool before slicing: Once the beets are roasted, let them cool slightly before slicing. This will help to prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Roasted beets with balsamic vinegar is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beets are roasted until tender and then tossed in a balsamic vinegar dressing. The result is a dish that is both flavorful and healthy. If you are looking for a new way to enjoy beets, this recipe is definitely worth trying.
