Braised Beets With Butter And Dill Recipes

Steps:

• Peel about a pound of beets and chop them into 1-inch cubes.
• In a large saucepan, combine a couple of tablespoons of butter with the vegetables and stock to cover (.5 cup or more).
• Add a splash of white wine and some freshly chopped tarragon; bring to a boil.
• Cover and adjust the heat so the mixture simmers.
• Cook until the vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

Steps:

• Peel 2 pounds beets, and chop them into 1-inch chunks; roughly chop the greens.
• Put both in a saucepan with 3 tablespoons butter and 1/2 cup stock.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Cover, and cook until the beets are tender and the greens wilted, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Boil off any excess liquid, then toss with chopped dill.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
• Add beets, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until squash start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add caraway seeds and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
• Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until beets are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree (adding fresh dill) until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
• Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Steps:

• Peel and grate beets.
• Put butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the beets, and stir occasionally until tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Place the beets into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry until cool enough to handle. While the beets are boiling, whisk together the vinegar and sugar until the sugar has dissolved; set aside.
• Once cool enough to handle, remove the skins from the beets and cut the tops off. Cut the beets into cubes or wedges, and add to the vinegar mixture. Season with the dill, clove, and allspice; toss until coated. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate the beets overnight before serving.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, arrange potatoes in a single layer. Add broth and butter. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 12 minutes., Uncover; cook until potatoes are tender and broth is evaporated, 7-10 minutes. Press each potato with a turner to crush slightly. Sprinkle evenly with the dill, salt and pepper. Cook until bottoms are lightly browned, 2-3 minutes longer. Serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Use a peeler to peel each beet; trim the top and bottom, and cut into 3-4 slices, approximately ¾-inch wide. In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add ⅓ of the beets in a single layer. Sprinkle with 2 pinches of salt and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the beets have browned on the first side, about 1-2 minutes. Flip the beets and brown the other side, then remove and place in a baking dish in a single layer. Wipe out the pan and repeat the process two more times.
• Once all the beets are in the baking dish, pour maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil over the beets. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake until tender, 45-60 minutes. Meanwhile, make the Hazelnut Relish.
• Hazelnut Relish, part 1: Cut the shallot in half through the root and discard the peel. Make vertical cuts, followed by horizontal cuts, without cutting through the root; finely dice. Place the diced shallot in a bowl. Add the apple cider vinegar and a pinch of salt to macerate (marinating the raw flavor out of the shallot), 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the hazelnuts.
• Hazelnut Relish, part 2: Toast the hazelnuts in a 350 F oven until fragrant, 8-10 minutes. Wrap warm hazelnuts in a kitchen towel, then rub with force until skins fall off. (Don't worry about skins that don't come off; they can stay.) Remove hazelnuts from towel and roughly chop. Set aside. Pick the leaves from the parsley and tarragon. Roll into a bundle; rock a knife back and forth through the bundle to roughly chop leaves. Set aside.
• After 45 minutes, remove beets from the oven; cool for 5-10 minutes. Check for doneness by poking them with a small knife; if it pierces the beets with little resistance, they're done. Remove beets from the braising liquid and transfer to a platter. Set aside. Pour the braising liquid into a pan. Over high heat, reduce to about ¼ of the original amount, 8-10 minutes; stay nearby, as the maple syrup can burn! When the liquid has reduced and thickened, remove pan from heat and spoon the syrup over the beets. While the beets finish cooling, occasionally toss them to ensure an even distribution of syrup. Allow the beets to absorb flavor until you're ready to assemble the dish.
• Hazelnut Relish, part 3: To the shallot-vinegar mixture, add the olive oil, hazelnuts, and herbs; stir to combine. Assembly: Arrange beets on a serving platter and top with ricotta. Sprinkle Hazelnut Relish all over the beets and serve.

Steps:

• Scrub beets and cut stems down to hardly there. Place in cooking pot, cover with water, and simmer until nearly tender (approximately 20 minutes). Remove from water, peel and quarter them.
• Heat butter in sturdy saucepan or skillet with lid. When melted, add beets and cook at medium for five minutes, tossing frequently so as to coat the beets with the butter.
• Add peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Trim the greens from the beets and save for sauteing or use in a soup. Scrub well, trim ends, then place beets on a baking sheet. Roast until cooked through, about 1/2 to one hour depending on the size. Allow to cool, then remove the skins (they should slip off with your fingers). Cut beets into 1/2-inch wedges and place in a medium bowl.
• To make the vinaigrette, whisk the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl. Drizzle vinaigrette over beets and toss to combine. Serve on plates with a dollop of sour cream.

Steps:

• With a sharp knife peel celery root and cut into 1-inch pieces. Diagonally cut carrots into 1-inch-thick pieces. Quarter shallots lengthwise. In a 2-quart heavy saucepan melt butter over moderately low heat. Add celery root, carrots, shallots, salt, and pepper to taste, stirring to coat vegetables with butter, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes. While root vegetables are cooking, trim beans. Stir beans into root vegetables and cook, covered, stirring once or twice, until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
