WILD ARUGULA AND BEET SALAD WITH ORANGE, WALNUTS AND TARRAGON



Wild Arugula and Beet Salad With Orange, Walnuts and Tarragon image

This is a salad filled with contrasting sweet and peppery flavors. Pungent wild arugula contrasts beautifully with sweet beets, anisy tarragon and juicy oranges. If you can find purslane, it makes a great addition to the salad, with its earthy flavor and almost juicy, delicate crunch. You can use a mix of colors for the beets. I roasted golden and red beets together, and the red beets bled into the outside layer of the golden beets, making their color striking in the salad.

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.

BEET AND ORANGE SALAD WITH WALNUTS



Beet and Orange Salad with Walnuts image

Honey and orange juice boost the natural sweetness of beets. We couldn't resist adding goat cheese, but the salad's equally good without.

Provided by Midwest Living

Categories     Food

Time 1h20m

Yield 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 - 8 small to medium beets (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds total)
1 cup walnut halves
3 navel oranges
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
2 ounces fresh goat cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Trim ends of beets. Divide beets between two 10-inch pieces of heavy foil. Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon water. Fold foil over beets; fold ends to seal. Place packets on a large baking sheet. Roast until beets are tender and easily pierced with a knife, 50 to 60 minutes. Carefully open packets to avoid the steam that escapes. When cool enough to handle, peel beets by rubbing them with a paper towel. Chop into cubes.
  • Meanwhile, toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
  • Cut tops and bottoms off oranges. Cutting from top to bottom, use a small knife to cut off peel and pith from the sides. Working over a bowl to catch juice, cut between orange segments and membranes to release segments into the bowl. Squeeze the membranes over the bowl to extract any remaining juice.
  • For dressing, carefully pour juice from the bowl with orange segments into a separate bowl. (You should have about 3 tablespoons juice.) Whisk in vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. While whisking, slowly pour in olive oil and continue whisking until emulsified.
  • Just before serving, gently combine beets, oranges, walnuts and parsley in a shallow bowl or platter. Add dressing and toss to combine. If desired, crumble goat cheese over salad.

RED LEAF SALAD WITH ROASTED BEETS, ORANGES, AND WALNUTS



Red Leaf Salad with Roasted Beets, Oranges, and Walnuts image

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium beets, trimmed and scrubbed
Olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 head red leaf lettuce, rinsed, dried, and torn into pieces
2 navel oranges
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed in a mortar and pestle
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup walnut oil

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Lay the beets on one half of a large piece of aluminum foil. Sprinkle with olive oil and season with salt. Fold the foil in half to make a packet and roll the edges to seal. Lay on a baking sheet and roast until tender, 45 to 60 minutes. Let cool. Peel the beets and slice into 1/2-inch-thick wedges.
  • 2. Keep the oven at 350°F; toast the walnuts on a baking sheet for a few minutes, 5 to 7, until they smell good. Remove the nuts and let them cool while you wash and dry the lettuce and tear it into a salad bowl.
  • 3. Zest one orange-you need 1 teaspoon grated zest. Using a very sharp knife, cut the ends from the oranges, slicing just deep enough to expose the flesh. Cut off the remaining peel and pith. Then, working over a bowl, remove the segments, cutting between the membrane. Place the segments in a strainer to drain off excess juice.
  • 4. Whisk together the dressing ingredients-the shallot, fennel seeds, and lemon juice-in a small bowl, adding the oil last, whisking as you pour it in so the dressing emulsifies a bit. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • 5. Toss the nuts, beets, oranges, and the dressing with the salad, adjust the seasoning, and serve immediately.
  • Tips and Techniques
  • Teresa: "The oranges and beets are best tossed in at the last minute, when you dress the salad to serve it, lest the o‐juice and beety color run amok."
  • About the Cook
  • Teresa Parker is an expert on Catalonia and its cuisine, and runs culinary tours in Spain. She's a good friend of Merrill's and splits her time between New York City and Wellfleet, Massachusetts.
