Categories     Fall     Dinner     Beet     Ginger     Salad     Thanksgiving     Peanut Free     Soy Free     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Vegetarian     Vegan

Number Of Ingredients 32

Pickled Orange-Ginger Purée:
Strips of zest (no pith) from 1 medium orange
2½ ounces fresh ginger (about one 5-inch piece), peeled and thinly shaved (use a mandoline if you have one)
¼ cup fresh lime juice
¼ cup champagne vinegar
¼ cup sugar
2 tablespoons plus ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ Thai chile, with seeds
Roasted Beets:
1½ pounds beets (use a mix of colors if possible), about 5 medium
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup white wine vinegar
¼ cup water
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Toasted Cashews:
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup roughly chopped cashews
Sunchoke Chips:
4 large sunchokes, thinly shaved (use a mandoline if you have one)
Vegetable oil
Kosher salt
For serving:
1 medium orange
Roasted Beets
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
¼ cup Pickled Orange-Ginger Puree
Toasted Cashews
1 tablespoon roughly chopped tarragon
1 tablespoon roughly chopped dill fronds
Sunchoke Chips

Steps:

  • Pickled Orange-Ginger Purée:
  • Place the zest strips in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil, then drain. Repeat this process two more times (blanching the orange zest removes any bitter flavors). Place the ginger and orange zest in a jar or heatproof container. In a saucepan, bring the lime juice, vinegar, sugar, and ¾ teaspoon salt to a boil. Pour over the ginger and orange. Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate overnight. The pickled ginger can be refrigerated for a couple of months.
  • Drain the pickled ginger and orange and save 3 tablespoons of the pickling liquid. Add both to a blender or mini food processor, along with the olive oil, chile, and remaining 2 tablespoons salt. Blend until very smooth, scraping down the side of the blender as needed. Transfer to a container and refrigerate until ready to use. The puree can be made a couple of days ahead. (Makes about 1 cup.)
  • Roasted beets:
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the beets in a baking dish (if using a mix of red and golden beets, separate them into two smaller dishes and divide the oil, vinegar, and water between the two dishes). Drizzle with the oil and add the water and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan with foil and roast until the beets are tender when pierced with a knife; this can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the thickness of the beets. Let the beets cool, then peel and cut into 1-inch wedges. Place each color of beet, along with any accumulated juices, into a small mixing bowl.
  • Toasted cashews:
  • In a skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add the cashews and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown. Transfer to a heat-proof bowl.
  • Sunchoke chips:
  • Pour 1 inch of oil into a small saucepan and add the sunchokes (there should be just enough oil to cover the sunchokes; add more oil if needed). Turn the heat to medium and stir occasionally; when the sunchokes begin to sizzle and foam, increase the temperature to high and continue frying, stirring constantly, until the sunchokes are light golden brown. At this point the sunchokes will rapidly go from golden brown to burnt, so quickly transfer the chips to paper towels to drain. Lightly season with salt. The sunchoke chips can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two, or until they start to soften. (Makes about ½ cup.)
  • For serving:
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the peel and pith off the orange. Working over a bowl, cut the orange between the membranes to release the segments. Dice the segments, then return them to the bowl.
  • Drizzle the beet wedges with a little bit of olive oil, season with salt, and toss.
  • Spread the ginger puree on the bottom of a shallow serving bowl or plate. Arrange the beets over the puree. Sprinkle the chopped orange segments over the beets and grind some pepper over the dish. Top with the cashews, herbs, and sunchoke chips. Serve.

BEET, ORANGE AND ARUGULA SALAD



Beet, Orange and Arugula Salad image

The oranges in this sweet and pungent salad will look like blood oranges after they sit for a little while with the beets. This makes a pretty Christmas salad. Try to find the wispy wild arugula, which is more pungent than regular arugula.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch baby red beets, cleaned and trimmed
1 bunch baby golden beets, cleaned and trimmed
1 bunch baby candy-striped beets, cleaned and trimmed
3/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1 1/2 cups sugar
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 blood oranges
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons chardonnay or champagne vinegar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 bulb fennel, trimmed and thinly sliced crosswise using a mandoline, fronds reserved and chopped
1 ounce shaved Chevrot cheese or crumbled Montrachet goat cheese
1 bunch arugula, preferably wild

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place beets in a roasting pan. Pour over 8 cups water, red-wine vinegar, sugar, and 3 tablespoons salt. Cover with parchment-paper-lined foil and roast until tender, about 40 minutes.
  • Drain beets and peel by rubbing with a kitchen towel. Cut beets in half lengthwise; set aside.
  • Juice 4 blood oranges into a small pot. Place over low heat and cook until reduced by half; let cool.
  • Transfer juice reduction in the jar of a blender, along with 3 red baby beets and 1/4 cup chardonnay vinegar; blend until smooth. With the motor running, drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil and blend until emulsified; season with salt and pepper. Strain through a fine sieve into a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Slice the top and bottom of remaining oranges with a paring knife. Set one of the flat sides on your work surface. From top to bottom, following the curve of the fruit, cut away peel and white pith. Trim off any remaining pith. Holding the orange over a bowl, cut along both sides of each segment, staying close to the membrane, to release; set aside.
  • Toss the fennel slices, fronds, and arugula in a large bowl along with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 3 tablespoons chardonnay vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Divide evenly among 4 plates.
  • In a large bowl toss together remaining beets, orange segments, and half of the vinaigrette; season with salt and pepper. Evenly arrange on top of greens. Garnish with cheese and drizzle remaining vinaigrette around the perimeter of the salad.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm beets with deep red color.
  • Use a mandoline or sharp knife to thinly slice the beets.
  • Soak the beets in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess dirt and bitterness.
  • Use a citrus zester or microplane to finely grate the orange zest.
  • Use fresh orange juice for the best flavor.
  • Season the beets with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the beets immediately or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Shaved beets with orange is a simple but flavorful salad that is perfect for any occasion. The beets are crisp and refreshing, while the orange adds a bright and tangy flavor. This salad is also very versatile and can be served as a side dish, appetizer, or even a main course.
