Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, seasonal beets. Look for beets that are small and firm, with no signs of wilting or bruising.
- To easily peel beets, roast them whole in a 400°F oven for about 1 hour, or until they are tender. Once they are cool enough to handle, the skins will slip right off.
- If you don't have time to roast the beets, you can also peel them with a vegetable peeler. Just be careful not to cut yourself.
- To save time, you can use pre-cooked beets. However, roasted beets will have a more intense flavor.
- Use a variety of greens in your salad. This will add color, texture, and flavor. Some good options include arugula, spinach, kale, and romaine lettuce.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings. A simple vinaigrette is always a good choice, but you can also try something more creative, such as a citrus dressing or a honey mustard dressing.
- Top your salad with goat cheese, walnuts, and rosemary for a delicious and elegant finishing touch.
