BEET AND POTATO SALAD



Beet and Potato Salad image

This is a better version of a ubiquitous salad found in takeout shops all over France. Salade Russe, as it is called, is a mayonnaise-dressed mixture of potatoes, diced carrots, peas and other vegetables, but usually not beets. Yogurt vinaigrette stands in for mayonnaise here.

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds small or baby beets
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 rounded teaspoon prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
A handful fresh parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Place the beets in a saucepan with water, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the beets, peel, and halve or quarter.
  • Place the sugar in a skillet and add a little water so that it looks like wet sand. Bring to a boil, and then simmer to evaporate the water out. When the sugar begins to color, remove it from the heat so that the sugar will not spatter and gently whisk in the vinegar. Return to the heat and thicken to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the stove and stir in the horseradish. Whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss the beets with the sauce and the parsley and serve.

POTATO AND BEET SALAD



Potato and Beet Salad image

Every Easter my Mom would make this potato salad. This is not exactly hers but my version. Don't wait for Easter make it for your next picnic! Do use new potatoes if you like them firm but I myself like my potatoes soft so I find myself using russets, and if you don't want a precise cut salad with firm potatoes use russet. I find myself rough cutting the russets potatoes because they do fall apart and add to the creaminess of the dressing. FYI-You can toss the cubed, cooked, still warm, potatoes with the vinegar or beet juice and let set till cool even up to over night. Then add remaining ingredients.
