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.

Tips:
- Use a variety of beets for a colorful and flavorful salad. Golden beets and candy cane beets are good options.
- Roast the beets until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness.
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the endive. This will help it to wilt slightly and absorb the dressing.
- Segment the oranges over a bowl to catch any juices. This will prevent the salad from becoming too watery.
- Use a light hand when dressing the salad. A little bit of dressing goes a long way.
- Serve the salad immediately, while the beets are still warm. This will help to wilt the endive and create a delicious, flavorful salad.
Conclusion:
This roasted beet, endive, orange, and watercress salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy fresh, seasonal produce. The beets are roasted until tender and caramelized, and the endive is thinly sliced and wilted slightly. The oranges are segmented and added to the salad for a burst of sweetness and acidity. The watercress adds a peppery flavor and a bit of crunch. The salad is dressed with a light vinaigrette made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey. This salad is perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it can also be served as a side dish.
