Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss 2 peeled and cubed golden beets with 1 tsp olive oil, then spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. Step 2: Whisk 1/4 cup Blanche de Bruges beer, 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, and 1 minced shallot in a small bowl until emulsified and smooth.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, combine 4 cups arugula, roasted beets, and 1/4 cup toasted walnuts. Drizzle with 1/2 the vinaigrette and toss gently until evenly coated.
  4. Step 4: Serve immediately, adding remaining vinaigrette to taste if desired, ensuring the beets are coated but not soggy.
