ROASTED BEETS WITH GRAPEFRUIT AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss beets with 1/4 cup oil in a 13x9" baking dish; season with salt. Pour in water to barely cover bottom of pan. Cover tightly with foil (you want steam to build up in there) and roast beets until a paring knife slips easily through flesh, 60-75 minutes.
• Let beets cool, then rub off skins with paper towels. Cut beets into irregular pieces (about 2") and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Using a vegetable peeler, remove two 2"-long strips of zest from grapefruit (try not to get any of the white pith) and thinly slice zest lengthwise into strips; set aside for serving.
• Cut grapefruit in half and squeeze juice over beets. Add shallots and vinegar, season generously with salt, and toss to coat. Let sit 15 minutes to allow shallots to soften slightly.
• Heat ¼ cup oil in a small skillet over medium. Add rosemary and cook, stirring often, until sizzling subsides, about 15 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels and let drain; season with salt.
• Arrange beets on a platter; drizzle with more oil and top with fried rosemary and reserved grapefruit zest.
• Do Ahead
• Beets can be roasted 2 days ahead. Remove skins; cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before cutting. Rosemary can be fried 3 hours ahead. Let sit at room temperature.

BEET ROSTI WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Trim beets, and peel them as you would potatoes; grate them in food processor or by hand. Begin preheating 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• Toss grated beets in bowl with rosemary, salt and pepper. Add about half the flour; toss well, add rest of flour, and toss again.
• Put butter in skillet; heat until it begins to turn nut-brown. Scrape beet mixture into skillet, and press with spatula to form a round. With medium to medium-high heat -- the pancake should gently sizzle -- cook, shaking pan occasionally, until bottom of cake is nicely crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Slide cake onto a plate, top with another plate, invert the two plates, and return cake to pan. Keep cooking, adjusting heat if necessary, until other side is browned, another 10 minutes or so. Garnish, cut into wedges, and serve hot or at room temperature.

BEET CHIPS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Slice beets on thinnest setting using a mandolin. This gives you paper thin wafers that are relatively consistent in thickness. TIP: Use a glass or non-porous cutting board/mat. Beets stain surfaces! You can use red or yellow beets, or a mixture.
• Place sliced beets in a glass bowl and toss with EVOO and salt. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. This process (salt) draws excess moisture from the beets. Once 20 min have passed toss beets in their liquid and drain.
• Place slices in a single layer on parchment lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with a bit of sugar, this brings sweetness back out. Sprinkle with rosemary powder.
• Bake 30-50 minutes. Until crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Place in air tight container with a silica packet. If you do not have some silica packets laying around (they come in jerky packages, etc.) make a small rice sock. This process keeps the chips crisp while in container rather than the chips absorbing the moisture from the air the rice/ silica do.
