GREEK BEET & YOGURT SALAD: PANTZAROSALATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 °F 220 °C.
• Individually wrap each beet with aluminum foil and place on a baking tray.
• Roast the beets until tender. About 45 - 1 hour depending on their size. Check with a knife by cutting through the center of the beet. They should be firm, not mushy.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
• Peel the beets while they are still warm and slice them into rounds or dice them. Transfer them into a large bowl.
• Combine all of the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Pour over the beets and carefully toss them. Season with salt and pepper. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This salad tastes best cold.
• Combine the yogurt dressing ingredients in a bowl and whisk together.
• Drizzle the yogurt on top of the beets and garnish with the walnuts.
• Note: The walnuts can be toasted in the oven at 350 degrees for 8 minutes or over medium heat in a pan.

SALAD WITH BEETS AND YOGURT DRESSING

Roast until beets are easily pierced with a paring knife, 30 to 45 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel beets and cut into wedges.
• Whisk together yogurt, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons oil; season dressing with salt and pepper. Thin as desired with 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Divide lettuce among plates and top with beets, tarragon, pistachios, and dressing. Serve immediately.

MEDITERRANEAN BEET AND YOGURT SALAD

Steps:

• Roast the beets, peel and cut in wedges or slice into half-moons. Stir together the vinegar, sugar, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss with the warm beets and allow to marinate for 2 to 3 hours at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
• Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle, add 1/8 teaspoon salt, and mash to a paste. Stir into the yogurt. Stir in half the dill. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drain the beets and stir some of the marinade into the yogurt (to taste). Toss with the beets, or arrange the beets on a platter and drizzle the yogurt over the top. Sprinkle on the remaining dill, and serve.

ROASTED BEETS WITH YOGURT

• Cut beets into halves or quarters and transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil, remaining 2 tablespoons coarse salt, and pepper; toss to combine.
• Spoon yogurt into the bottom of a large shallow serving bowl; top with an even layer of beets. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and balsamic vinegar; garnish with chervil and season with sea salt and pepper. Serve.
