Ingredients
Scale
Beets
- 2 large beets, washed and peeled (peeling optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Honey Mustard Vinaigrette
- 2 tablespoons dark balsamic vinegar
- 2–3 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Vinaigrette: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and a little olive oil until the mixture is smooth and emulsified.
- Spiralize the Beets: Using a spiralizer, slice the washed and peeled beets into thin, noodle-like spirals. A Paderno World Spiralizer is recommended for best results.
- Season and Roast: Spread the beet spirals evenly on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes, or until the beets become tender.
- Toss with Vinaigrette and Serve: Transfer the roasted beets to a large bowl and pour the honey mustard vinaigrette over them. Toss gently to coat all the beets evenly. Serve warm or at room temperature for best flavor.
Notes
- Peeling beets is optional; leaving the skin on retains more nutrition but peeling results in a cleaner appearance.
- Adjust honey quantity to control the sweetness in the vinaigrette to your taste.
- Use fresh Dijon mustard for the best flavor and emulsification.
- This dish can be served warm or cold depending on preference.
- Use a spiralizer designed for firm vegetables for optimal spiral texture.
