Halloumi and Golden Beet Salad
Hello, Tasters, and happy Saturday! Today, I have a new recipe for you to test.
Halloumi and Golden Beet Salad
I’ve made this multiple times and feel like I’ve struck a good balance of sweet, salty, tangy, and earthy. Most of all, I couldn’t stop eating the toasted bread cubes in the salad! The halloumi works really well with the earthy golden beets and sweet golden raisins; this is one salad I will continue to revisit throughout autumn.
I’ve made this with traditional golden beets and badger flame golden beets, and both are delicious. If you can find the badger flame beets, I highly recommend them–their color is stunning, and they look magnificent in the salad as they have more intense streaks of orange than the paler golden beets. As I said, both are delicious, and you could really use your favorite beet variety here; red or Chioggia beets would also be fantastic, or use a mix!
As a reminder, please include a photo of the finished dish when you test the recipe! Upon completion, you can email your pictures to kylie@triedandtruerecipe.com.
Recipes in the vault
We are getting into the time of year when I begin to prepare for the big “T” day! I can’t believe it’s right around the corner. Do you have any special requests? I just tested a beautiful fennel-rubbed turkey breast yesterday, and I can’t wait to share the recipe with you all FIRST! I thinly sliced the meat and froze it for sandwiches next week.
I also made a delicious veggie pearl couscous recipe I want to make again before the tomato season wraps up. I’ll be sharing that one soon.
Happy cooking, everyone!
