INSTRUCTIONS
Make marinade: In a small saucepan bring marinade ingredients to a
boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and cool. Preheat oven to
400 degrees. Wrap beets tightly in foil and roast in middle of oven 1
to 1 1/2 hours, or until tender. In a large saucepan of boiling salted
water cook carrots until crisp tender, 6 to 7 minutes, and transfer
with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Unwrap beets carefully and cool. Slip
off beet skins and slice beets, transferring to another bowl. Divide
marinade between beets and carrots, combining well, and marinate,
covered and chilled, at least 4 hours. In saucepan of boiling carrot
cooking water cook beans until crisp tender, 5 to 6 minutes, and drain
in a colander. Rinse beans well under cold water and pat dry between
paper towels. Vegetables may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead
and chilled, covered. Make dressing: In a bowl whisk together mustard,
vinegar, water, sugar, and salt and add oil in a stream, whisking
until dressing is emulsified. Whisk in dill. Just before serving,
toss beans in a bowl with 2 tablespoons dressing and drain beets and
carrots. Arrange vegetables decoratively on a platter and drizzle with
remaining dressing. Yield: 8 servings Notes: Recipe courtesy of
