Ingredients

Salad

  • 12 small beets (2 lb)
  • 5 heads Belgian endive (1 1/4 lb), cut into bite-size pieces (5 cups)
  • 5 clementines, peeled, sliced
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped candied almonds

Citrus-Herb Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 cup fresh clementine or orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
  • 1 teaspoon grated clementine or orange peel
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Remove greens from beets, leaving about 1/2 inch of stem. Do not trim or cut root. Wash beets well. Tightly wrap beets in double layer of foil; place on cookie sheet. Roast 45 minutes to 1 hour or until tender. Let beets stand 30 minutes or until cool enough to handle; peel and cut into wedges (discard stem and root ends).
  • 2
    In small bowl, mix vinaigrette ingredients with wire whisk.
  • 3
    In large bowl, toss endive and half of the vinaigrette. Divide among 10 salad plates. Arrange roasted beets, clementines and almonds over endive. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrette. Serve immediately.

  • For a buffet, arrange salad on a platter instead of individual plates.
