MâCHE AND RADICCHIO SALAD WITH BEETS AND WALNUT VINAIGRETTE



Mâche and Radicchio Salad With Beets and Walnut Vinaigrette image

Of all the greens I worked with this week, mâche has the sweetest, mildest flavor. It goes nicely with the bitter radicchio, sweet beets and the nutty vinaigrette. Mâche is so delicate that it takes very little dressing.

RADICCHIO AND BEET SALAD



Radicchio and Beet Salad image

Radicchio belongs to the chicory family. Sweet and bitter at the same time, it is delicious in salads, braised alone, in risotto, and for making pasta sauces. On my recent trip to the Salinas Valley in California, I was astounded to see how radicchio prospered, and how much of it was being produced.

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bunch beets, with greens (about 4 medium beets)
1 head radicchio, cut into 1/2-inch shreds (about 8 ounces)
6 ounces mild provolone or white cheddar, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Trim the beet stems, leaving about 1 inch of the stems on the beets. Reserve the greens. Put the beets in a pot, and fill with water to cover them by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, and cook until the beets are almost tender, about 30 minutes. Add the trimmed beet greens, and cook until the beets and greens are tender, about 15 minutes more. Drain and let cool.
  • Peel the cooled beets, and slice them into 1/4-inch half-moons, then put them in a serving bowl. Squeeze out the excess liquid from the beet greens, and chop coarsely. Combine with the shredded radicchio and provolone or cheddar, and toss them into the serving bowl. Drizzle with the vinegar and olive oil, and season with salt. Toss well again, and serve.

RADICCHIO SALAD WITH WALNUT DRESSING



Radicchio Salad with Walnut Dressing image

Walnut oil gives this salad a distinctly nutty flavor; it can be found in most grocery stores. Radicchio di Treviso has narrow, tapered leaves; radicchio di Verona leaves form loose, round heads. The varieties may not be clearly labeled, but the shapes make them easy to distinguish.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup walnut oil or extra-virgin olive oil
2 heads radicchio, preferably Treviso (about 1 1/4 pounds total), leaves separated
1/3 cup walnut halves

Steps:

  • Whisk together vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified. (If using olive oil, you may want to warm the oil and walnuts first over low heat in a small pan for a few minutes. Then let cool to room temperature to infuse the oil with flavor.)
  • Add radicchio to dressing, and toss. Divide among 4 serving plates, and sprinkle with walnuts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right radicchio. Look for heads that are firm and have a deep red color. Avoid any heads that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Roast the beets ahead of time. This will save you time when you're assembling the salad. You can roast the beets up to 3 days in advance.
  • Use a variety of nuts. Walnuts are a classic choice, but you can also use pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts. If you're using a nut that is not already chopped, be sure to chop it before adding it to the salad.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld together. You can make the dressing up to 3 days in advance.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best enjoyed fresh. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

This radicchio salad with golden beets and walnuts is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing salad, give this one a try!
