Stack a few slices on top of each other and cut the slices into 1/2-inch batonettes, and then into 1/2-inch cubes. Transfer the cubed beets to a medium mixing bowl.

Bring the beets to room temperature before serving.)

Taste for seasoning and add more salt, pepper, or horseradish, if desired. Transfer the beets to a serving platter and scatter the mâche leaves over the top, or use scissors to snip the chive in 1-inch pieces over the beets. Serve at room temperature.
