Rocco DiSpirito’s vegetarian “tartare” of shredded raw beets develops a slightly spicy depth from the horseradish and Dijon, while creamy carrot “egg yolk” brings bright flavor to beets’ natural earthy sweetness.
How to Make It
Grate beets on large holes of a box grater or using grating attachment on a food processor. Place in a large bowl; stir in lemon juice, horseradish, mustard, Worcestershire, and olive oil. Let stand at least 2 hours or up to overnight. Stir in parsley.
Whisk together carrot juice, lemon juice, Worcestershire, coconut nectar, salt, and, if using, xanthan gum in a bowl or measuring cup.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons carrot sauce onto each of 4 small rimmed plates, swirling plates to form a circular pool of carrot sauce. Top each plate with about 3/4 cup beet tartare and 1 dill sprig.
