- 20 (1 1/4-inch) radishes, trimmed
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 20 (1 1/4-inch) golden or albino beets, trimmed, leaving 1 inch of greens attached to use as a handle, and peeled
- 3/4 stick unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon banyuls or other red wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 bunch baby arugula
-
EQUIPMENT: an adjustable-blade slicer; 8 (2 1/2-inch-diameter; 1/3-cup capacity) ramekins
-
Thinly slice radishes and beets with slicer.
-
Melt butter with 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper.
-
Arrange 1 layer of radishes, overlapping slightly, in bottom of each ramekin, then lightly brush with melted butter. Arrange a layer of beets on top and brush with butter. Repeat layering, alternating radishes and beets and brushing with butter in between, until ramekins are filled to about 1 inch from top (about 4 layers of each vegetable). Let stand at room temperature until butter solidifies to hold "terrines" together.
-
Whisk together vinegar, oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper, then toss arugula with vinaigrette to coat.
-
Unmold terrines onto plates and serve with salad.
COOKS' NOTE: Terrines can be made 1 day ahead and chilled. Bring to room temperature before serving.
