Ingredients
2 lb beets (5-6 medium)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp sherry vinegar (white-wine)
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
freshly ground pepper (taste)
1 stalk celery (finely chopped)
1 shallot (finely chopped)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Divide beets between 2 pieces of foil; bring edges together and crimp to make packets. Roast until the beets are just tender when pierced with the point of a knife, about 1 1/4 hours. Unwrap the beets and let cool.
2. Meanwhile, whisk oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt and pepper in a small bowl to make dressing.
3. When the beets are cool enough to handle, slip off the skins. Cut into 1/2-inch cubes and place in a large bowl. Add celery, shallot and the dressing; toss to coat well. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
