Recipe by Melissa Roberts Yes, the paper-thin disks of raw beet will spill their pink color across the escarole and frisée dressed with a lusty vinaigrette, but don't fret—those splashes are part of this simple salad's charm.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 medium beet, trimmed and peeled
  • 3/4 pound escarole, torn into bite-size pieces (10 cups)
  • 1/4 pound frisée, torn into bite-size pieces (6 cups)
  • 6 ounces radicchio (1 large head), torn into bite-size pieces
  • Equipment: an adjustable-blade slicer

Instructions

  1. Blend vinegar, garlic, mustards, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a blender until garlic is very finely chopped. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream and blend until emulsified.
  2. Slice beet paper-thin with slicer.
  3. Toss greens and beet in a large bowl with enough dressing to coat.
