INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 450 F.
Mix the oregano, thyme, fennel seed, coriander, rosemary, bay leaves
and peppercorns together.
Place the beets in a roasting pan, and sprinkle with the the mixture
of dried spices and herbs and drizzle with olive oil to coat. Bake,
uncovered, until tender when pierced with a fork (about 1 hour.) When cool
enough to handle, slip off the skins.
Quarter the beets and transfer them to a processor. Process the beets
until coarsely chopped. Transfer them again to a small saucepan and stir
over medium heat until heated through. Add the butter and stir until
glossy. Season to taste with salt, and serve immediately.
