Warm Beet Orange Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Scrub the beets, pat them dry and put into a paper bag. Place the bag into the microwave on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high power in 2 minute increments, until tender when pierced with a knife, 10 to 12 minutes total. When cool enough to handle, peel off the skin with a paring knife. Quarter the beets and cut each segment into 1/2-inch wedges. Transfer to a medium bowl.
• Coarsely chop the pecans. Toast in a small, dry skillet over medium heat, stirring the pecans around frequently, until very aromatic, but not blackened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet to a bowl to cool.
• Juice the orange over a small bowl. Combine 1/4 cup of the orange juice and the maple syrup in the same small skillet. Boil the mixture over medium heat until reduced to a thick syrup (about 2 tablespoons), about 5 minutes. Whisk the mustard into the syrup, remove from the heat and add to the cooked beets. Stir in the pecans and 1 teaspoon of the remaining orange juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub beets and trim tops to 1 in. Place beets on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 24x12-in.); drizzle with oil. Fold foil around beets, sealing tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Roast 55-65 minutes or until tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape., When cool enough to handle, peel and slice beets. Divide salad greens, beets and oranges among six salad plates. Sprinkle with cheese. In a small bowl, whisk dressing ingredients; serve with salads.

Steps:

• Boil 1 pound beets in salted water until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Drain, then peel and slice into wedges.

Add 1 bunch arugula and 2 segmented blood oranges and toss.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Wrap the beets individually in aluminum foil and place them on a sheet pan. Roast them for 50 minutes to 1 hour, depending on their size, until a small sharp knife inserted in the middle indicates that they are tender. Unwrap each beet and set aside for 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Peel the beets with a small, sharp knife over a piece of parchment paper to prevent staining your cutting board.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and set aside. While the beets are still warm, cut each one in half and then each half into 4 to 6 wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl. As you're cutting the beets, toss them with half of the vinaigrette (warm beets absorb more vinaigrette), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Taste for seasonings.
• Place the arugula in a separate bowl and toss it with enough vinaigrette to moisten. Put the arugula on a serving platter and then arrange the beets, almonds, and goat cheese on top. Drizzle with additional vinaigrette, if desired, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place 1 pound beets on a large piece of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 3 tablespoons water; close into a packet. Roast at 400 degrees F until tender, 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Scrub and peel beets. Cut into wedges; place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Spritz beets with additional cooking spray until coated. Bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally., Meanwhile, for dressing, heat orange juice over medium heat in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until liquid is syrupy and reduced to about 1/3 cup. Remove from heat. Whisk in next 7 ingredients. Set aside to cool., Just before serving, place arugula in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 cup dressing; toss to coat. Divide mixture among 6 salad plates. Place beets in the same bowl; add remaining dressing and toss to coat. Arrange on plates. Sprinkle salads with blue cheese and hazelnuts.

Steps:

• Chop beet greens. Peel and cut beets into matchsticks. Saute greens with garlic and red pepper flakes. Remove from pan and saute beets until tender; squeeze half an orange over top. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and more orange juice.

Steps:

• Spray a 6-cup gelatin mold or bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the gelatin in a medium bowl.
• Strain the pineapple and mandarin oranges, reserving the liquid in a large measuring cup. Set the fruit aside. Add enough water to the fruit juices to equal 2 cups. Transfer the juice mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat. Pour the hot juice mixture over the gelatin and whisk to dissolve. Add the orange sherbet and stir until fully melted and combined.
• Add the sour cream and beat with an electric mixture until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the mold and add the reserved mandarins and pineapples, making sure to distribute the fruit evenly throughout. Refrigerate until fully set, at least 3 hours up to overnight.
• Carefully dip the mold in hot water for 15 to 30 seconds. Remove and place a platter over the top of the mold. Invert onto the platter and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet pan with aluminum foil. Put the beets in a bowl with the olive oil, brown sugar and some salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread the beets on the baking sheet, scatter the lemon peel and thyme around them and roast until a toothpick inserted into the beets meets just a little resistance in the middle, about 1 hour. Cool, peel and slice the beets 1/4-inch thick.
• Meanwhile, drain the ricotta in a colander for about 10 minutes, then add it to a food processor along with the buttermilk, parsley, chives and some salt and pepper. Whip until fluffy; taste and re-season if necessary.
• Toss the sliced beets, lime juice, extra-virgin olive oil and some Maldon in a medium bowl. Lay the beets on a platter. Scatter the fennels seeds and black olives on top. Then lay the blood oranges over the beets and sprinkle with the pistachios. Drizzle a little balsamic vinegar over the top. Dollop the ricotta mixture around the beets. Top with the micro basil and arugula flowers and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk 2 tablespoons orange juice, 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar and 1 teaspoon dijon mustard in a bowl; whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
