MMMMM-------------------------SMORREBROD------------------------------
3 md Yellow beets
+=PLUS=+
1 sm Choggia beet; garnish
Salt & fresh ground pepper
1 sm Shallot; thin sliced
Tarragon leaves; garnish
4 tb Buckwheat
4 sl (1/4" thick) Danish-style
- rye bread
MMMMM--------------------TARRAGON MAYONNAISE-------------------------
1/4 c Mayonnaise
2 tb (packed) chopped tarragon
- leaves
Salt & fresh ground pepper
In a small saucepan, add the 3 medium yellow beets and
enough water to cover by 1 inch; bring to a boil, then
season with 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Cook until the
beets are tender when poked with a paring knife, about
35 minutes. Drain and run the beets under cool water
while peeling away the skins. Slice away any remaining
or unattractive ends.
Transfer the cooked beets to a cutting board and cut
each into 8 wedges; season with salt and set aside.
Meanwhile, make the tarragon mayonnaise: In a small
bowl, combine the mayonnaise, tarragon, and a pinch each
salt and pepper; stir well to combine. Cover and
refrigerate until ready to use.
Using a mandolin, thinly slice the remaining raw yellow
beet and the chioggia beet. Transfer to a small bowl of
cold water for 5 minutes to keep crisp.
Meanwhile, in a small dry skillet, add the buckwheat
over medium-high heat. Cook, tossing or stirring
occasionally, until fragrant and lightly toasted, 5-7
minutes. Remove to a small bowl.
To assemble, spread each of the rye bread slices with
about 2 teaspoons of the prepared tarragon mayonnaise.
Top with the cooked beets, overlapping the pieces
slightly, then top decoratively with a few slices each
of the raw yellow and chioggia beets. Garnish with a few
sliced shallots, the buckwheat, and tarragon leaves to
taste. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
