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.

GRILLED BEET SALAD WITH BURRATA AND CHERRIES



Grilled Beet Salad with Burrata and Cherries image

Roasting whole beets on the grill (or on hot coals) until they're completely blackened imparts an intense smoky flavor, and the charred skins slip off easily. Tossed in oil and vinegar and topped with burrata, cherries, and olives, this recipe is an exciting new take on beet salad.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium beets (about 2 lb. total)
1 Tbsp. sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 tsp. kosher salt
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
8 oz. burrata or mozzarella, torn into 2" pieces
8 oz. fresh cherries (about 2 cups), halved, pitted
1 cup Castelvetrano olives, smashed, pitted
Flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal fire in a grill. Let coals cool to medium heat (coals should be covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining).
  • Grill beets directly on coals, turning occasionally, until skins are blackened and flesh is fork-tender, 35-45 minutes. (Alternatively, grill, covered, on the grate of a gas or charcoal grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, 45-55 minutes.) Transfer to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let steam until cool enough to handle.
  • Wearing gloves if you don't want pink hands, pull charred skins off beets (they should slip off easily), then slice each beet into 6 wedges. Transfer to a large bowl, add vinegar, kosher salt, and 3 Tbsp. oil, and toss to combine.
  • Arrange beet mixture on a platter. Top with burrata, cherries, and olives. Drizzle with oil; season with sea salt and pepper.
  • Do Ahead: Beets can be grilled 2 days ahead. Let cool (do not peel); cover and chill.

PERFECTLY ROASTED VEGETABLE



Perfectly Roasted Vegetable image

Roasted vegetables are one of my absolute favorite side dishes, especially in the winter. They take a while to cook, but overall are an extremely easy dish to prepare. I've found that the key is to place them low in the oven so that you get a good caramelized side. Don't move or flip them, but keep an eye on them so that you don't go past 'caramelized' to 'burned.'
