1/4 cup shredded Carrots
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat whole beets in 2 tablespoons of oil. Place in a baking dish and cook for 1 hour. Check beets for doneness by inserting a sharp knife into the center. If it comes out easily the beets are cooked, but if not cook for an additional 15 minutes before checking again.
Allow beets to cool, then peel and cut into large cubes.
Make the vinaigrette by whisking together the water, lemon juice, sugar, yellow mustard, salt, black pepper, white vinegar and red onion. Slowly add 1 cup of oil in a thin stream while whisking.
Add beets to vinaigrette and mix to coat. Leave beets in vinaigrette for 2 hours to marinade.
Add carrots to beets. Drain vinaigrette from beets and carrots and save for use on a salad. Serve immediately or refrigerate for several days.
