Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place beets in a roasting pan and add enough water to come halfway up the sides of the beets. Cover with foil and bake until tender, about 45 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, put beets in a bowl of ice water to cool. Rub with paper towels to remove skins, slice in half and place in a bowl. Set aside.
- Peel the horseradish and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place in a food processor or blender and add 1/4 cup each walnut oil and vinegar. Pulse until horseradish is medium fine, not puréed. Pour mixture into a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth-lined sieve over a bowl and press out liquid. Add crème fraîche to liquid and mix. Season to taste.
- Place spinach in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons each walnut oil and vinegar and season to taste. Toss to coat. Repeat the process with beets.
- On each of 4 plates circle the edges with beets and fill in with spinach. Make another circle of beets on top of the spinach and add more spinach. Put 2 beet halves on top with a walnut half. Drizzle the crème fraîche around each salad and serve.
