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.
