Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 large garlic clove
1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
2 tsp dijon mustard
2 tsp sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
1 medium beet, trimmed and peeled
3/4 lb escarole , torn into bite-size pieces (10 cups)
1/4 lb frisee , torn into bite-size pieces (6 cups)
6 oz radicchio (1 large head), torn into bite-size pieces

Directions:

Blend vinegar, garlic, mustards, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a blender until garlic is very finely chopped. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream and blend until emulsified.
Slice beet paper-thin with slicer.
Toss greens and beet in a large bowl with enough dressing to coat.
Cooks' notes: Vinaigrette keeps, chilled, 1 week. Bring to room temperature before using. ;Beet can be sliced 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealable bag. Greens can be washed (but not torn) 1 day ahead and chilled in sealable bags lined with damp paper towels.
