ROASTED BEET SALAD WITH ORANGES AND CREAMY GOAT CHEESE DRESSING



Roasted Beet Salad with Oranges and Creamy Goat Cheese Dressing image

Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound small golden and red beets, scrubbed
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon sugar
4 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 medium oranges
8 ounces baby arugula
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Trim the beets and place on a sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap the beets in the foil and bake until tender, about 45 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel the beets, slice in half lengthwise, and then slice into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons. For the dressing, heat 3/4 cup of the orange juice and the sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer until the mixture is reduced to about 3 tablespoons, about 30 minutes. Cool completely. Whisk the orange juice reduction with the olive oil, the remaining 2 tablespoons orange juice, the goat cheese, champagne vinegar, heavy cream and 1 tablespoon water in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cut off both ends of the oranges. Carefully cut off the skin and pith, and then slice the oranges in half and then into 1/4-inch half-moons. Mix together the arugula and onions in a large salad bowl. Divide the salad among 4 plates. Arrange the oranges and beets over each salad and drizzle with the dressing. Cook's Note: If using both golden beets and red beets, wrap them separately so the red beets don't dye the golden beets while they cook.

BEET SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE, WATERCRESS AND SHALLOT THYME DRESSING



Beet Salad with Goat Cheese, Watercress and Shallot Thyme Dressing image

Beets are so humble. They may look funny raw but they're really diamonds in the rough. Their incredible color and flavor never cease to astound me. I dress the beets up with complementary ingredients that serve to make their flavor shine without overpowering. Beets are special and should be the only star on the stage.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 medium or 12 small beets
1/3 cup olive oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
Leaves from about 10 sprigs thyme
3 good pinches salt
10 grinds fresh black pepper
1 large bunch watercress
4 tablespoons cold goat cheese

Steps:

  • Cook beets in water to cover until tender, about 40 to 45 minutes. Drain the beets and set aside to cool.
  • For the dressing, whisk together olive oil, shallot, half the lemon juice, the thyme, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • While the beets are cooling, wash the watercress and trim the thicker stems from the leaves. Spread the trimmed watercress out over some paper towels to dry.
  • When the beets are cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to peel off the beets skins, they should come off very easily.
  • Cut the beets into quarters lengthwise and then those pieces in half crosswise.
  • Place the beets and watercress in separate bowls. Divide the dressing between the 2 bowls. Toss the watercress and beets until evenly coated with the dressing.
  • Spread the watercress out on a serving platter to make a bed for the beets. Crumble the cold cheese into the beets and toss gently. Spread the beets over the bed of watercress and sprinkle with remaining lemon juice. Serve immediately.

Beet Salad with Goat Cheese, Green Apple, and Honey image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds red beets, tops removed and scrubbed
8 ounces baby Chioggia beets, tops removed and scrubbed
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons grapeseed or safflower oil
3 tablespoons pure honey
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon plus 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
1 green apple
4 ounces fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
2 cups sprouts or microgreens, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place red beets in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer and add enough water to come three quarters of the way up sides of beets. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and drizzle with grapeseed oil. Cover with foil and bake until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Transfer beets to a cutting board. When just cool enough to handle, remove skins, cut into 1/4-inch slices, and transfer to a bowl.
  • Meanwhile, place baby beets in small saucepan and cover with 2 inches cold water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 25 minutes. Drain beets; when just cool enough to handle, remove skins; cut into halves or wedges, depending on size; and transfer to another bowl.
  • Whisk together honey, olive oil, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice; add 1 teaspoon salt and season with pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing; divide remaining dressing between bowls of warm beets; toss beets to coat.
  • Halve lemon and squeeze juice into a bowl of cold water; drop lemon halves in it. Peel apple, cut into small pieces (you should have about 1 cup), and submerge in lemon water. When ready to serve, drain apple and blot dry. Arrange beets on a serving platter and drizzle with reserved dressing. Top with apple, goat cheese, and sprouts and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe beets. Roasted beets have a slightly sweet and earthy flavor that pairs well with the tartness of the apples and the tanginess of the goat cheese.
  • If you don't have time to roast the beets, you can use pre-cooked beets. Just be sure to drain them well and pat them dry before adding them to the salad.
  • Use a variety of apples in the salad. This will add different flavors and textures to the dish.
  • Choose a goat cheese that is soft and creamy. This will make it easier to crumble over the salad.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the salad immediately after dressing it. This will prevent the greens from wilting.

Conclusion:

This beet, apple, and goat cheese salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy these seasonal ingredients. The roasted beets add a slightly sweet and earthy flavor to the salad, while the apples add a tartness that balances out the sweetness of the beets. The goat cheese adds a creamy and tangy flavor that brings all of the ingredients together. The orange-shallot dressing is a perfect finishing touch, adding a citrusy and savory flavor to the salad. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
