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:

• Remove any greens and scrub the beets under warm water.
• Pour 1 1/2 cups of water into the pressure cooker pot. Insert the steamer basket and put the 6 beets in the basket. Cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. Release the pressure manually. Test the beets by piercing them with a fork; they should be tender. If not, cook on high pressure again for another 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grate the zest off the lime and reserve it; then cut the lime into wedges.
• When the beets are tender, transfer them to a large bowl and let them cool until you're comfortable handling them. Working quickly, skin the beets while they are still warm (they are harder to peel after they've entirely cooled down). You can use a paring knife to skin them, or rub the skins off with a paper towel.
• Cut the peeled beets into slices or wedges, and arrange them on a platter. Drizzle with olive oil, and then squeeze some of the fresh lime juice over them.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, garlic, and reserved lime zest. Drizzle the dressing over the beets and top with the dill, flaky sea salt, and lots of black pepper.

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.
• Add in sugar, stock, and salt to taste.
• Cook on low heat for approximately 15 more minutes, or until beets are tender, mixing occasionally.
• You can serve now, or reheat for later.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over moderate heat melt 2 tablespoons butter, add parsley and sliced beets.
• Warm through, season with salt and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place beets in small roasting pan with 1/4 cup water. Cover pan tightly with foil. Bake until beets are tender when pierced with knife, about 1 hour. Cool slightly. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Peel beets. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
• Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Stir in dill and lemon juice. Add beets and toss until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl; 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:

• 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:

• Peel beets, and chop them into 1-inch chunks; roughly chop greens. Put both in a saucepan with smoked ham hock or ham steak, butter and beer.
• 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. Garnish: Caraway seeds.

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:

• Boil beets until tender, about 20 minutes. When cool enough to handle, rub skins off baby beets with a kitchen towel. Coarsely grate beets.
• In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir in yogurt and olive oil, then beets and dill. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Chill until ready to serve.
