2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
grapeseed oil
2 beetroot (beets)
2 bulbs red whitlof (Belgian Endive) leaves separated, washed and dried

Beet and Endive Salad with Garlic and Herb Vinaigrette image

Provided by Amy Finley

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 to 4 small-sized red beets, greens trimmed
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt, for seasoning
4 large or 6 small heads Belgian endive, cored
Garlic and Herb Vinaigrette, recipe follows
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Salt, for seasoning
Pepper, for seasoning
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place a large sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet. Place the beets on top, drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt, then fold the long and short edges of the aluminum foil up to the middle and roll together, making a packet with the beets inside. Put in the oven and roast until fork-tender, about 1 1/2 hours. (Can be done a day or two ahead of time.) Allow to cool, then slip the skins from the beets, trim the ends, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Set aside.
  • Quarter the endives lengthwise, then slice crosswise into 1/2-inch thick moons. Combine the beets and endive in a salad bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve immediately.
  • In a small glass bowl, melt the salt in the vinegar, then add the pepper, shallot, garlic, mustard, and herbs and combine well. Whisk in the olive oil in slow, steady stream until the dressing is thickened. Alternately, place all ingredients in a glass jar, close the lid, and shake vigorously.

BELGIAN ENDIVE AND BEETROOT SALAD



Belgian Endive and Beetroot Salad image

My mother used to make endive salad (witlof salade) in different ways; I thought I share them with you. She used to use mayonnaise but I usually use the sour cream. I would think you can use your own favorite dressing on this but I would suggest you make it a creamy one. Use as much dressing on this as you like, the 3 tablespoons are just a guide line. I sometimes cheat and buy the beets in a jar! The amount of this salad depends on the size of the endive and the beets.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 heads Belgian endive, the bitter core removed and finely chopped (chicory)
2 cooked beets, coarsely grated or chopped in cubes
1 apple, coarsely grated or chopped in cubes
3 tablespoons sour cream, more if you like
1 teaspoon mustard
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Mix the sour cream with the mustard and add salt and pepper.
  • Combine with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Variations: use (as many as you like) chopped hard-boiled eggs instead of the beets, then leave out the mustard and use some curry powder in the sour cream.
  • Add some chopped green onion.
  • Use 4-6 oz cubed or chopped cheese of your choice instead of the beets.

BEET AND ENDIVE SALAD WITH WALNUTS
