1 1/2 pints basket assorted cherry tomatoes

2 pounds heirloom tomatoes -- different colors and

1 shallot -- diced fine

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 garlic clove -- smashed

salt

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Stars' Beet Salad With Watercress & Ricotta Salata

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Salads Sent

 

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

8 small beets of various colors

2 (or 3) thyme sprigs

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh orange juice

pinch grated orange zest

1/2 teaspoon minced fresh tarragon

salt and freshly ground pepper -- to taste

2 lemon cucumbers

2 small bunches watercress

1/4 pound ricotta salata -- in one piece

the vinaigrette

1 tablespoon minced shallots

1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

 

Place the beets in a baking dish with about 1/4 inch of water. Add the thyme

sprigs, cover and bake about 45 minutes, or until a knife pierces the beets

easily. When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut into wedges.

Keeping the red beets separate to prevent ``bleeding,'' dress beets with the

olive oil, orange juice, orange zest and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper.

 

About 30 minutes before serving, peel the lemon cucumbers, cut into wedges and

season with salt.

 

Remove any large stems from the watercress.

 

To make the vinaigrette: Cover the shallots with wine vinegar in a bowl and let

stand for 5 minutes. Whisk in the mustard, thyme and olive oil. Season with salt

and pepper. Taste and adjust balance as needed.

 

Toss the watercress with enough of the dressing to coat the leaves lightly. Add

the cucumbers and toss again.

 

Divide among serving plates. Scatter the beets evenly over the salads. Using a

vegetable peeler, shave the ricotta over the salads in long, curly slivers.
