Golden Beet Carpaccio Salad Recipes

GOLDEN BEET CARPACCIO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss beets with oil in roasting pan. Sprinkle with salt. Cover pan with foil. Roast beets until tender, about 50 minutes. Let beets stand covered at room temperature 20 minutes. Peel beets. Place in bowl; cover and chill at least 1 hour. DO AHEAD Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
• Toss onion, oil, capers, and chives in small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thinly slice beets. Arrange beets in concentric circles on each of 6 plates. Mound arugula atop center of beets on each. Spoon onion-caper mixture over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

COOKED BEET "CARPACCIO"

Steps:

• Roast the beets: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place the beets in a baking dish, then add 1 cup water. Cover tightly with foil. Roast until the beets yield when pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size of the beets. Set aside to cool.
• Make the vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, lemon juice and red wine vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season with kosher salt. Set aside.
• Make the walnuts: Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. When it gets hot (but not too hot), add the walnuts and season with kosher salt. They should fry slightly in the oil. When you can smell the nuts, add the paprika and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the nuts brown slightly. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Assemble the carpaccio: Lightly brush a platter (or individual plates) with olive oil. Rub the skin off of the beets with paper towels; trim any root tips and cut the beets into thin slices. Place in a single layer on the platter (or plates). Season with the sugar and flaky salt. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and top with the walnuts. Snip the chives into 1-inch pieces over the beets.

BEET CARPACCIO WITH MINT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Fill a pot with 3 inches of water, insert a steamer basket, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium or medium-low and place beets inside the steamer basket. Cover pot. Cook until beets are easily pierced with a knife, checking water level periodically, 35 to 50 minutes. Remove from heat and cool, about 30 minutes.
• Peel the beets; if you are using red and golden beets, peel the golden ones first so you don't end up turning them pink. Remove any remaining root stems. Thinly slice beets and arrange on a serving platter. I use a round plate and start in the center, alternating red and golden beet slices. Dot the top with goat cheese - you want to be able to see the beets but have enough cheese because it pairs so well with the beet. Sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.
• Combine rice vinegar, olive oil, mint, and sugar in a small bowl. Drizzle over beets.

GOLDEN-BEET SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wrap beets in parchment, then foil, and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender, about 60 minutes. Let cool completely. Peel and cut beets into 1/2-inch dice. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook haricots verts in boiling salted water until bright green and crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, and drain. Cut beans diagonally into thirds, and add to beets.
• Mix vinegar, shallot, and mustard in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified. Toss with vegetables, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in torn basil and goat cheese. Garnish with basil leaves.

SHAVED GOLDEN BEET SALAD

• Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and toss to coat.

GOLDEN BEET SALAD WITH CIDER VINEGAR DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Rinse the beets and cut off the greens, saving them for another use. Rub the beets with the olive oil, wrap in foil and place on a baking sheet (in case they leak). Bake until you can pierce through the middle of each beet with a knife, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• While the beets are cooking, gently bring the vinegar to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat until it is reduced by a third. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• When the beets are cool, use a paring knife to remove the skins, which should peel off easily. Cut each beet into thin slices using a sharp knife. Sprinkle them with salt and toss them in the reduced vinegar.
• Toss the mâche with the walnut oil and a few grinds of pepper. Top the mâche with the beets, walnut pieces and cheese. Use a spoon to drizzle the remaining vinegar on top, as desired. Serve immediately.

BEET CARPACCIO WITH GOAT CHEESE AND MINT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place beets on sheet (if using both light- and dark-colored beets, place them on separate sheets to prevent discoloration). Sprinkle beets lightly with water. Cover tightly with foil. Bake until beets are tender when pierced with fork, about 40 minutes. Cool on sheet. Peel beets. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Place in resealable plastic bag; chill.)
• Using cheese slicer or knife, slice beets very thinly. Slightly overlap slices on 6 plates, dividing equally. Sprinkle with cheese, then shallot, salt, and pepper. Whisk vinegar, mint, oil, and sugar in small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over beets. Sprinkle with chives.
