Robust Beet Salad by Dr Andrew Weil image

Found this online. My crowd is big on beets and big on things with a hot kick. This looks very promising. Hope to try it soon. If you don't like to boil beets, you can surely roast them instead (yum), or, if in a pinch for time, use canned beets.

Time 53m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs beets
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup rice vinegar or 1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon wasabi powder (Japanese horseradish)
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, sliced thin
salt

Steps:

  • Cut off the beet tops about an inch above the beet. In a large pot cover the beets with three inches of cold water and bring to a boil. Cover and boil over medium heat until tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Drain the beets under cool running water. Slip off their skins. Trim off stems and root ends and slice the beets thinly.
  • Combine the sliced beets in a bowl with the other ingredients, add salt to taste, and chill. Stir several times.
  • This salad will keep for a week in the refrigerator.
