Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the Beets:
2 pounds (about 1kg) beets, unpeeled, greens removed, scrubbed clean
1 tablespoon (15ml) extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the Horseradish Crème Fraîche:
4 ounces (100ml) crème fraîche
2 tablespoons (30ml) prepared horseradish, store-bought or homemade
For the Dressing and to Serve:
1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh juice from 1 lemon
1 tablespoon (about 5g) minced fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon (about 5g) minced fresh chives
1 small shallot, minced (about 2 tablespoons; 15g)
1 teaspoon (5ml) honey
3 tablespoons (45ml) extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces pistachios (115g), toasted and roughly chopped

Steps:

  • For the Beets: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Fold a 12- by 24-inch sheet of aluminum foil in half to form a square. Crimp together foil on 2 sides of square to form a pouch with an opening on one side. In a medium bowl, toss together beets, 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste until beets are coated. Add to pouch and crimp remaining side to seal. (If using beets of multiple colors, roast in separate pouches.) Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and place in oven. Roast until beets are completely tender and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into a beet through foil meets little to no resistance, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and allow to cool. When beets are cool enough to handle, peel by gently rubbing skin under cold running water. Cut beets into 1 1/2-inch chunks. Beets can be cooked and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • For the Dressing: In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, tarragon, chives, shallot, and honey. Slowly drizzle in olive oil while stirring vigorously with a fork. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
  • To Serve: In a large bowl, toss beets with dressing. Spoon half of crème fraîche mixture on the bottom of a serving plate. Place beets on top and drizzle with remaining crème fraîche mixture. Sprinkle with pistachios and serve.

Provided by Suzanne Goin

Categories     Dairy     Side     Roast     Horseradish     Beet     Fall     Winter     Sour Cream

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 bunches different-colored beets
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon diced shallot, plus 1/4 cup sliced shallots
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1/4 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Cut off the beet greens, leaving 1/2 inch of the stems still attached. (You can save the leaves for sauteing later-they are delicious!) Clean the beets well, and toss them with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt
  • Place the beets in a roasting pan with a splash of water in the bottom. Cover the pan tightly with foil, and roast for about 40 minutes, until they're tender when pierced. (The roasting time will depend on the size and type of beet.) When the beets are done, carefully remove the foil. Let cool, and peel the beets by slipping off the skins with your fingers. Cut them into 1/2-inch-thick wedges.
  • While the beets are in the oven, combine the diced shallot, both vinegars, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl, and let sit 5 minutes. Whisk in the 1/2 cup olive oil. Taste for balance and seasoning.
  • Whisk the crème fraîche and horseradish together in a small bowl. Stir in the heavy cream, remaining 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, ⅛ teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper.
  • Toss the beets and sliced shallots with the vinaigrette. (If you're using different-colored beets, dress each color in a separate bowl so the colors don't bleed.) Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper, and toss well. Taste for balance and seasoning.

Provided by Peter Mcquaid

Categories     salads and dressings

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 to 20 organic baby beets, trimmed and scrubbed
1 16-ounce horseradish root, scrubbed and trimmed
1/2 cup walnut oil
1/2 cup Champagne vinegar
28-ounce containers crème fraîche
Salt and pepper
4 cups organic baby spinach, trimmed and rinsed
4 walnut halves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place beets in a roasting pan and add enough water to come halfway up the sides of the beets. Cover with foil and bake until tender, about 45 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, put beets in a bowl of ice water to cool. Rub with paper towels to remove skins, slice in half and place in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Peel the horseradish and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place in a food processor or blender and add 1/4 cup each walnut oil and vinegar. Pulse until horseradish is medium fine, not puréed. Pour mixture into a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth-lined sieve over a bowl and press out liquid. Add crème fraîche to liquid and mix. Season to taste.
  • Place spinach in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons each walnut oil and vinegar and season to taste. Toss to coat. Repeat the process with beets.
  • On each of 4 plates circle the edges with beets and fill in with spinach. Make another circle of beets on top of the spinach and add more spinach. Put 2 beet halves on top with a walnut half. Drizzle the crème fraîche around each salad and serve.

BALSAMIC ROASTED BEET SALAD



Balsamic Roasted Beet Salad image

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 medium-size beets, tops removed and scrubbed
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup good olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, such as Grey Poupon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces baby arugula
1/3 cup roasted, salted Marcona almonds, toasted
4 ounces soft goat cheese, such as Montrachet, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Wrap the beets individually in aluminum foil and place them on a sheet pan. Roast them for 50 minutes to 1 hour, depending on their size, until a small sharp knife inserted in the middle indicates that they are tender. Unwrap each beet and set aside for 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Peel the beets with a small, sharp knife over a piece of parchment paper to prevent staining your cutting board.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and set aside. While the beets are still warm, cut each one in half and then each half into 4 to 6 wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl. As you're cutting the beets, toss them with half of the vinaigrette (warm beets absorb more vinaigrette), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Taste for seasonings.
  • Place the arugula in a separate bowl and toss it with enough vinaigrette to moisten. Put the arugula on a serving platter and then arrange the beets, almonds, and goat cheese on top. Drizzle with additional vinaigrette, if desired, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm or at room temperature.

SAUTéED HALIBUT WITH ARUGULA, ROASTED BEETS, AND HORSERADISH CRèME FRAîCHE

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 halibut fillets, 5 to 6 ounces each
1 lemon, zested
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces arugula, cleaned
Roasted beets with Horseradish Crème Fraîche
2 tablespoons super-good extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Season the fish with the lemon zest, thyme, and parsley. Cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Remove the fish from the refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking, to bring it to room temperature.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over high heat for 2 minutes. (Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook the fish in batches or in two pans.) Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Swirl the regular extra-virgin olive oil into the pan and wait 1 minute. Carefully lay the fish in the pan, and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until it's lightly browned. Turn the fish over, lower the heat to medium-low, and cook a few more minutes, until it's almost cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the fish. When it's done, the fish will begin to flake and separate a little, and the center will still be slightly translucent. Remember, the halibut will continue to cook for a bit once you take it out of the pan.
  • Scatter half of the arugula over a large platter. Arrange the beets on top, and drizzle with half the horseradish cream. Tuck the rest of the arugula among the beets, so you can see the beets peeking through. Nestle the fish in the salad, and spoon a little horseradish cream over each piece. Drizzle the whole dish with the super-good olive oil and a big squeeze of lemon.

SAUTéED HALIBUT WITH ARUGULA, ROASTED BEETS, AND HORSERADISH CRèME FRAîCHE



Sautéed Halibut with Arugula, Roasted Beets, and Horseradish Crème Fraîche image

The colored beets and bright green arugula in this dish make for a visually stunning presentation. The sweet roasted beets marinated in lemon vinaigrette play off the pure white fish and horseradish cream. Look for a few different types of beets, such as golden beets and Chioggia beets, and dress them separately, so the dark ones don't bleed their juices onto the lighter ones. In the spring, you could make this dish with wild salmon. And to make a more hearty meal, serve some beluga lentils on the side (see page 331).

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 halibut fillets, 5 to 6 ounces each
1 lemon, zested
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1/4 cup heavy cream

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Select firm, smooth beets with deep red color. Smaller beets tend to be sweeter and more tender.
  • Roast the beets properly: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and roast the beets for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Use fresh horseradish: Freshly grated horseradish provides the best flavor and sharpness. If using prepared horseradish, adjust the amount to taste.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Toss the salad just before serving: This will prevent the beets from bleeding into the dressing and making the salad look unappetizing.

Conclusion:

This roasted beet salad with horseradish crème fraîche is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beets are roasted until tender and sweet, and the horseradish crème fraîche adds a tangy and creamy flavor. This salad is also very easy to make, and can be prepared in advance.
