Honey Tips
How Honey Is Created
Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°.
Beets:
Place beets and water into a 9×13-inch pan. Cover tightly with foil and bake about 1 hour or until beets are tender. Remove from oven. Cool completely.
Remove skins and slice beets.
Dressing:
In a small bowl, combine first 5 ingredients. Slowly whisk in olive oil until well blended.
To assemble:
Tear endive leaves into bite size pieces. Toss with some dressing. Divide endive between 4 plates. Top with beet slices and drizzle with a little more dressing.
Serves: 4
