Baby Beet Salad With Rocket And Goats Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread the beets on a baking sheet. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, rosemary and some salt and pepper. Reserve one-quarter of the dressing for the salad and pour the rest over the beets. Roast until the beets are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.
• While the beets are cooking, heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls. Coat the goat cheese slices first in the flour, then in the egg, then in the breadcrumbs. Fry the slices until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Whisk the mustard and sugar into the reserved dressing, then pour over the greens in a large bowl and toss to coat. Divide the greens among 6 plates, add the beets on top and place 2 fried goat cheese slices on top.

Steps:

• Place beets into a saucepan, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until tender. Drain and cool, then cut in to cubes.
• While the beets are cooking, place the walnuts in a skillet over medium-low heat. Heat until warm and starting to toast, then stir in the maple syrup. Cook and stir until evenly coated, then remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice concentrate, balsamic vinegar and olive oil to make the dressing.
• Place a large helping of baby greens onto each of four salad plates, divide candied walnuts equally and sprinkle over the greens. Place equal amounts of beets over the greens, and top with dabs of goat cheese. Drizzle each plate with some of the dressing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wash and dry the beets and trim off the ends. Take a large sheet of aluminum foil, 12 by18, and double it over. Put the beets in the middle, drizzle with olive oil and season with the salt and pepper. Bring the sides of the foil up around the beets to make a pouch. Put in the hot oven and bake until the beets are tender, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. When cool enough to handle, gently peel off the skin and slice into julienne pieces, about 2 inches long by 1/2-inch thick. Chill until ready to use.
• Lightly toast the pine nuts in a small saute pan over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a plate or small bowl and cool. Slice the goat cheese into 1/2-inch rounds and press the pine nuts onto both sides. Chill until service.
• When ready to serve, lightly toss the baby greens and the spinach together in a large bowl and dress the edge of your serving bowl with 1/4 cup of the Tarragon Dressing. Toss the greens and then top with the beets and the goat cheese rounds. Drizzle with additional dressing and serve immediately.
• In a small bowl or glass jar, combine all the ingredients, except the olive oil. Whisk until well h well combined, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil. This recipe works really well with a stick blender.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Rinse the beets and pat dry. Brush with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and wrap individually in aluminum foil. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and cook until fork-tender, 75 to 90 minutes. While still warm, cool, peel the beets and cut into wedges. In a large bowl, toss them with extra-virgin olive oil and vinegar.
• Scoop the goat cheese into the middle of a large serving platter. Arrange the beets and their dressing on top and around the cheese. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and four-pepper mix to taste. If you choose, garnish with nasturtium leaves.

Steps:

• Place beetroot in a large saucepan.
• Cover with cold water, bring to the boil.
• Simmer 40 minutes or till tender, cool in pan.
• Drain beetroot.
• Use your hands to rub off skin.
• Combine beetroot, rocket, onion, cheese and pinenuts in serving bowl.
• Shake oil, juice and sugar together.
• Season to taste.
• Drizzle salad with dressing just before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Boil beets for 30 minutes with skin on. Drain and place on baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes at 350. Cool for 10 minutes. Peel and slice.
• Puree dressing ingredients in blender and add chives at the end.
• Place greens in center of plate, surround with beets, crumble feta and drizzle with dressing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Toss chopped beets with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Spread out in a single layer in a baking dish and squeeze lemon half over top. Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until beets are tender, about 1 hour. Remove and allow to cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
• Combine cooled beets and green onion in a bowl; toss to combine. Scatter crumbled goat cheese on top. Drizzle with olive oil and season with more sea salt, if necessary.

Steps:

• Place the baby spinach in a salad bowl. Add the balsamic vinaigrette and toss gently until well coated.
• Divide the spinach among 4 shallow bowls or salad plates. Top with the beet slices and sprinkle over the crumbled goat cheese. Serve.
• Cooking Beets
• To prepare the beets, trim all but about 1 inch of the stems. Rinse thoroughly under cold, running water.
• To boil beets, bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the beets and return the water to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the beets are tender when pierced with a thin, sharp knife, about 20 minutes for small beets, about 30 minutes for medium beets, and 45 minutes to 1 hour for large beets. Drain the beets and transfer them to a bowl of ice water until cool enough to handle.
• To bake beets, preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the beets in a small roasting pan and add 1/2 cup of water. Seal the pan tightly with foil and bake until the beets are tender when pierced with a thin, sharp knife, about 45 minutes for small beets, about 1 hour for medium beets, and about 1 1/4 hours for large beets (be careful when lifting the foil; don't get burned by the escaping hot steam). Remove the beets from the pan and let stand. When the beets are cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to trim the ends and slip off their skins. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold.

• Beets retain better flavor when they are boiled or baked with their skins on, but peeling them after cooking can transfer all that beautiful color right to your hands, where it doesn't look so nice. Wear kitchen gloves when peeling and chopping beets.
