Frequently Asked Questions About Beet carpaccio
What is beet carpaccio?
Beet carpaccio is a starter made from very thinly sliced beetroot, usually dressed with oil, citrus or vinegar. It takes its name from traditional carpaccio but uses beet instead of raw meat, and is often finished with herbs or nuts.
How do you make beet carpaccio?
To make beet carpaccio, cook and cool the beets, then slice them very thinly. Arrange the slices on a plate, drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, season, and add herbs or nuts just before serving.
Is beet carpaccio made with raw or cooked beets?
Beet carpaccio can be made with either raw or cooked beets. Raw slices are firmer and more earthy, while roasted or boiled beets are softer and sweeter. Slice them thinly so they are easy to eat.
How do you slice beets thinly for beet carpaccio?
A mandoline makes the most even, paper-thin beet carpaccio slices; use its hand guard because beets can be slippery. A sharp knife works too: cut a flat side first so the beet stays steady on the board.
What dressing goes on beet carpaccio?
Olive oil with lemon juice is a simple, reliable dressing for beet carpaccio. Apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar or mustard also pairs well with beet’s sweetness; dress the slices shortly before serving to keep their texture.
What toppings go well with beet carpaccio?
Walnuts, fresh herbs, arugula and crumbled goat cheese are popular toppings for beet carpaccio. For a dairy-free finish, use toasted seeds instead of cheese; add delicate greens at the last moment so they do not wilt.
Can you make beet carpaccio ahead of time?
Yes, you can slice the beets for beet carpaccio ahead of time and refrigerate them in a covered container. Keep the dressing and fresh toppings separate until serving so the slices do not become soggy and the herbs stay fresh.
How long does beet carpaccio last in the fridge?
Beet carpaccio keeps for about two days in a covered container in the refrigerator, though its texture is best soon after assembly. If possible, store the beet slices separately from the dressing, cheese and greens.
What should you serve with beet carpaccio?
Beet carpaccio works well as a starter with crusty bread, roasted vegetables or a grain salad. Its sweet, earthy flavor also makes a good contrast to savory mains, so it can be served as a side rather than a full salad.
Does beet carpaccio lower blood pressure?
Beet carpaccio contains natural nitrates that may support blood-vessel relaxation, but it is not a treatment for high blood pressure. If you take blood-pressure medication or have a related medical condition, ask your clinician about your diet.

What is Beet carpaccio?
Beet carpaccio is a meat-free take on Italian carpaccio: thin slices of beetroot arranged as a starter, often with olive oil and simple toppings. The beet can be served raw or cooked and cooled first, depending on the recipe; roasting brings out a sweeter, earthier flavour.
Its tender slices pair well with citrus, vinegar, herbs, nuts or a little cheese. It works as a starter or side, and can be served with bread or alongside other Mediterranean-style dishes. Beetroot provides fibre and folate; a 100 g portion has 2.8 g of fibre. For a lighter plate, use a modest drizzle of oil and let lemon juice and fresh herbs add brightness.
