Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Golden Beets

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the golden beets thoroughly and wrap them in aluminum foil. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Once cooked, let them cool, then peel and slice them into wedges.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Parmesan Crisp

    While the beets are baking, prepare the Parmesan crisp. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grate the Parmesan cheese and place small mounds (about 2 tablespoons) in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove and let cool on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Wash and Chop Romaine

    Wash the romaine lettuce under cold water and pat dry. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the golden beets have cooled and the Parmesan crisps are ready, add the beet wedges to the romaine in the salad bowl.

  2. 5

    Add Boquerones

    Add the boquerones (anchovies) to the salad, distributing them evenly among the greens and beets.

  3. 6

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  4. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the ingredients without breaking the beets.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Top the salad with the prepared Parmesan crisps just before serving for maximum crunch. Enjoy your Golden Beet Salad!
