Ingredients:

Serving

4 beets, about 2 lbs. total
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
3 tbsp sugar
3/4 cup white vinegar
2 tbsp white wine vinegar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut off and discard most of the stems from the beets, then wrap them individually in foil. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 50 minutes, or until the beets give only halfhearted resistance when pierced with a knife. Unwrap and cool for a few minutes, then peel and cut into bite-size chunks.
Meanwhile, heat the vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring to a boil, add the onion and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Drain, discarding spices.
Put the vinegar in a small bowl, and gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour over beets and stir. Gently fold in the mint and pickled onions.
