HOMEMADE LAVENDER HONEY



Homemade Lavender Honey image

In Provence, lavender honey is made by the bees that frequent the wild purple-budded bushes growing near their hives. Be aware that this homemade version, infused with lavender flowers, needs to stand for 24 hours before being used. If you purchase dried lavender flowers, be sure that they are culinary quality. A lovely gift! From "From the Cook's Garden".

BEET SALAD WITH HONEY-LAVENDER DRESSING



Beet Salad with Honey-Lavender Dressing image

The familiar beet-and-goat-cheese salad gets a fresh, vibrant update with Swiss chard and yellow and candy-striped beets tossed in a sweet, tangy honey-lavender dressing. Use a mandoline or other adjustable-blade slicer (or a sharp chef's knife) to thinly slice the baby beets.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 medium beets (2 1/4 pounds total), preferably a mix of yellow and red
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Coarse salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium shallots, thinly sliced (1 cup)
1/3 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon fresh lavender leaves
1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 cup safflower oil
2 bunches baby chard or 1 bunch Swiss chard (about 1 pound), stems removed, leaves torn into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup pecans (2 ounces), toasted and salted
8 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
2 baby Chioggia beets, scrubbed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Beets: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle medium beets with olive oil in a baking pan; season with salt. Place in a single layer and add 1 cup water. Cover with parchment, then foil, and roast until knife-tender, about 1 1/2 hours. When cool enough to handle, rub off peels with paper towels (use a paring knife for tough spots); discard. Cut beets into bite-size pieces.
  • Dressing: Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a medium saute pan over low. Add shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add honey and lavender; simmer until lavender is fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Puree with yolk, vinegar, and mustard in a blender or food processor until smooth. With machine running, slowly add safflower oil until combined. (If dressing is too thick, add water, 1 teaspoon at a time.)
  • Salad: Combine roasted beets, chard, and pecans in a bowl. Lightly toss with 1/4 cup dressing. Place 1 tablespoon dressing on bottom of each plate, then add salad mixture and goat cheese, dividing evenly. Top with baby beets and serve, with remaining dressing on the side.

LAVENDER VINAIGRETTE



Lavender Vinaigrette image

I found a bottle of Lavender vinegar in my pantry that someone must have given me at some point. I did a search to see what I could make with it, and found this recipe. I'm posting it here for safe keeping and ZWT II. I think plain honey could be used instead of the lavender honey.
