Categories     Soup/Stew     Milk/Cream     Citrus     Garlic     Onion     Vegetable     Passover     Horseradish     Beet

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups nondairy sour cream, soy yogurt, or regular sour cream
3 tablespoons finely grated peeled fresh horseradish root
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 stalks celery, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 medium beets, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, stir together sour cream and horseradish. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • In 6-quart stock pot over moderate heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add onions, celery, and garlic and sauté until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add beets and stir until lightly coated with oil. Add 8 cups water, cover, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until beets are tender and easily pierced with fork but not falling apart, about 1 hour.
  • Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, sugar, coriander, salt, and pepper. Serve hot, topped with horseradish cream, or serve chilled.
  • Variation:
  • : If you plan on serving this soup at two seders and want some variety on the second night, try this twist that combines Eastern European knaidlach (matzoh balls) and Middle Eastern kibbeh (meatballs): Prepare matzoh ball dough (you can use a packaged mix) and chill at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together ground beef or lamb, chopped onion, chopped celery, chopped fresh mint, a pinch of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Form the meat into mini-meatballs. Wrap matzoh ball dough around each meatball to form "knaidlach kibbeh." Boil the balls according to the package directions (the meat will cook inside them). Place two balls in each bowl of hot soup.

BEET SALAD WITH HORSERADISH AND FRIED CAPERS



Beet Salad With Horseradish and Fried Capers image

Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     salads and dressings

Time 1h30m

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds small beets, trimmed and scrubbed
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for beets and frying capers
2 tablespoons salt-packed or brined capers
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons horseradish, more to taste
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sour cream
Sea salt to taste
1 clove garlic, crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place beets on half of a large piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil. Fold the foil and seal the edges. Lay package on a baking sheet and place it in the oven. Roast until beets are tender, 45 to 60 minutes. (Test by poking a fork through the foil into a beet.) Remove from the oven. Be careful when opening the foil; steam will race out. While still warm, peel beets, then slice into wedges and place in a bowl.
  • Soak salt-packed capers for 10 minutes, drain, rinse, then pat dry. (If using brined capers, drain and pat dry.) Pour 1/2 inch olive oil into a small saucepan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot enough to toast a bread crumb in 30 seconds, add capers. Be careful; oil may sputter. Fry until capers fluff and begin to brown on edges, 30 to 60 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, horseradish and vinegar. Whisk in 1/4 cup oil, followed by sour cream. Pour half the dressing over beets; mix. Taste, adding more dressing or salt, if needed. Rub a platter with crushed garlic, then spoon on beets and sprinkle with fried capers.

From Food and Drink magazine. Hope you enjoy! *Note, please use a very hot, prepared horseradish sauce to offset the mildness of the cream.

Tips:

  • Once the beets are roasted, you can easily peel them by rubbing them with your fingers. The skin should come off easily.
  • Be sure to grate the beets coarsely for the best texture in the salad.
  • Use a good quality sour cream for the best flavor. You can also use Greek yogurt if you prefer.
  • Add the horseradish to taste. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach the desired level of spiciness.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
