BEET CHIPS WITH ROSEMARY
The tip to crisp red beet chips is to not only slice thinly but to "sweat" them first to remove excess moisture. This recipe includes instructions on how to sweat your beets.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Slice beets on thinnest setting using a mandolin. This gives you paper thin wafers that are relatively consistent in thickness. TIP: Use a glass or non-porous cutting board/mat. Beets stain surfaces! You can use red or yellow beets, or a mixture.
- Place sliced beets in a glass bowl and toss with EVOO and salt. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. This process (salt) draws excess moisture from the beets. Once 20 min have passed toss beets in their liquid and drain.
- Place slices in a single layer on parchment lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with a bit of sugar, this brings sweetness back out. Sprinkle with rosemary powder.
- Bake 30-50 minutes. Until crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
- Place in air tight container with a silica packet. If you do not have some silica packets laying around (they come in jerky packages, etc.) make a small rice sock. This process keeps the chips crisp while in container rather than the chips absorbing the moisture from the air the rice/ silica do.

Steps:
- Special Equipment: V-slicer or mandoline, deep-fry thermometer
- Wash the vegetables and dry very well. Set aside.
- In a small bowl combine the garlic, rosemary and salt. Set aside.
- Warm the oil in a large pot over high heat to 350 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, trim 1-inch off the end of each sweet potato. Using the V-slicer or mandoline, slice the sweet potatoes into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick. Trim 1-inch off the root end of the beets. Using the V-slicer or mandoline slice the beets into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick.
- When the oil is hot add about a quarter of the sweet potato slices. Let fry until golden and the bubbling has almost completely subsided, about 2 to 3 minutes. Using a mesh sieve or slotted spoon remove the chips to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with some of the garlic, rosemary, and salt mixture. Continue with the remaining sweet potatoes.
- Transfer to a serving plate.
- Next, fry 1/4 of the beets. Let fry until curled at the edges and most of the bubbling has subsided, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the beets to another paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt mixture. Continue with the remaining beets. Let cool and transfer to a serving plate.

BEET ROSTI WITH ROSEMARY
The sweetness of beets is wonderfully exploited in this dish, created by Michael Romano, the chef at Union Square Cafe. It's a thick beet pancake, cooked slowly until the beet sugars caramelize and a crunchy, sweet crust forms, reminiscent of créme brûlée. A touch of rosemary does not diminish the sweetness, but simply adds a dimension to this versatile side dish, which is good with braised meats or grilled food or can accompany a salad as a light dinner.

Steps:
- Trim beets, and peel them as you would potatoes; grate them in food processor or by hand. Begin preheating 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Toss grated beets in bowl with rosemary, salt and pepper. Add about half the flour; toss well, add rest of flour, and toss again.
- Put butter in skillet; heat until it begins to turn nut-brown. Scrape beet mixture into skillet, and press with spatula to form a round. With medium to medium-high heat -- the pancake should gently sizzle -- cook, shaking pan occasionally, until bottom of cake is nicely crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Slide cake onto a plate, top with another plate, invert the two plates, and return cake to pan. Keep cooking, adjusting heat if necessary, until other side is browned, another 10 minutes or so. Garnish, cut into wedges, and serve hot or at room temperature.
