Description

A seasonal, stunning appetizer that combines the sweet-earthy notes of roasted beetroot with the creamy tartness of goat cheese, the juicy sweetness of persimmon, and crunchy walnuts. Complementing this are bright, ruby-red pomegranate seeds and delicate arugula, which add contrasting colors and freshness to the plate. This dish is perfect as a starter for winter gatherings, holiday meetings, or an elegant buffet — it looks great served on a wooden board, drawing attention with its rich colors. The composition provides protein and healthy fats, and thanks to the presence of beetroot and pomegranate, it also has antioxidant properties.

Preparation steps

Preparation

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (top-bottom). Prepare a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Wash the beets under cold water with a vegetable brush, trim the ends, and if the skin is thick, gently scrub them - do not peel the beets yet.

Ingredients: Raw red beets
Use a large baking tray lined with parchment paper. If the beets are small, roast them whole; cut larger ones in half. Warning: beets stain hands - use disposable gloves or wash your hands immediately.

Roasting beets

2

Cut the beets into equal quarters or slices about 1.5 cm thick (if the bulbs are smaller, cut them in half). Place them on a baking sheet, drizzle with 20 g of olive oil (about 1 1/3 tablespoons), and gently sprinkle with 1 g of sea salt. Toss the beets on the sheet so that each piece has a thin coating of oil.

Ingredients: Raw red beets, Olive oil, Sea salt
Use gloves or two spoons for mixing; mixing on the baking sheet is convenient. Make sure the pieces are spread out in a single layer (not overlapping) for even baking.
3

Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 35-45 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn the beet pieces with a spatula to ensure they brown evenly. The beets are ready when a knife can be easily inserted into them (they should be soft on the inside but hold their shape).

Ingredients: Raw red beets
Use a silicone or metal spatula. If the beets are very large, the time may be extended - check them with a fork every 5-10 minutes after the 35th minute.

Glaze and finishing the beets

4

Remove the beets from the oven. In a small bowl, mix 30 g of honey with 10 g of oil and 15 g of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Drizzle the mixture over the hot beets and gently toss them (use two spoons) to coat the pieces with the glaze. Let sit for 5 minutes — the honey will slightly caramelize and create a shiny coating.

Ingredients: Raw red beets, Honey, Olive oil, Lemon juice
Use a small bowl and a spoon for mixing; if the honey is too thick, you can slightly warm it in the microwave for 10 seconds to make mixing easier. Be careful not to burn yourself when drizzling over the hot beets.

Preparation of toppings

5

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add 60 g of walnuts to the dry skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes, shaking the skillet every few seconds, until they become fragrant and lightly golden. Set aside to cool, then chop coarsely with a knife on a cutting board.

Ingredients: Walnuts
Use a flat, wide pan (preferably cast iron or non-stick). Do not add any fat. Be careful not to burn the nuts — roasting takes a short time.

Bread preparation

6

Slice the baguette into 12 thin pieces about 1 cm thick. Drizzle both sides with the remaining olive oil (10 g = ~2/3 tablespoon) and arrange on a baking sheet. Place in the oven preheated to 200°C for 6-8 minutes, until the slices become golden and slightly crispy. Once removed, set aside to cool slightly.

Ingredients: Baguette, Olive oil
The best option is a grill pan or an oven — if you are using a toaster, keep an eye on the slices, as they brown quickly. The slices should be crispy on the outside but not hard as a rock.

Assembly of the tartines

7

Spread a thick layer (about 30 g) of creamy goat cheese on each slice. Use a butter knife or a teaspoon to spread the cheese all the way to the edge of the slice, but not too thin — it should be a distinct flavor base.

Ingredients: Goat cream cheese, Baguette
Use a butter knife or a wide spatula. The cheese should be at room temperature (take it out of the fridge 15-20 minutes earlier), then it spreads more easily.
8

On the cheese, place a piece of roasted beet (1-2 pieces, about 30-40 g) and a slice of persimmon (about 20-30 g). Top with a teaspoon of pomegranate seeds (about 15 g) and sprinkle with chopped toasted nuts (about 10 g). Finally, garnish each tartine with 3-4 arugula leaves.

Ingredients: Raw red beets, Persimmon (kaki), Pestki granatu, Walnuts, Arugula, Goat cream cheese, Baguette
Arrange the ingredients gently to avoid smearing the cheese. If the persimmon is very soft, cut it with a sharp knife to ensure the slices are even and aesthetically pleasing.

Seasoning and decoration

9

Gently drizzle each tartine with the remaining mixture of oil and honey (if any is left) or a small amount of oil (~2-3 g). Add freshly ground pepper (a pinch) and, if desired, sprinkle with black sesame seeds (optional) and thyme leaves.

Ingredients: Olive oil, Black pepper (freshly ground), Black sesame, Fresh thyme, Honey
Use a pepper mill for freshness of aroma. Add sesame very sparingly – 1-2 g per tartine is enough to achieve a decorative effect.

Serving

10

Arrange the tartines on a large wooden board or platter. Make sure the colors are evenly distributed — dark red beets, orange slices of persimmon, and ruby pomegranate seeds should create an attractive pattern. Serve immediately to keep the bread crispy.

Ingredients: Arugula, Pestki granatu, Raw red beets
Use a wide serving board; you can add extra arugula leaves and sprinkle a few pomegranate seeds around for effect. The dish tastes best fresh, without long storage.

Fun Fact

💡

In ancient times, the pomegranate was a symbol of fertility and life — its ruby seeds have been used for centuries not only in the kitchen but also as ceremonial decoration. The combination of beetroot and pomegranate is also a classic pairing of flavors in Middle Eastern cuisines.

Tips

🍽️ Serving

Serve the tartines immediately after preparation so that the bread doesn't have time to soften. You can provide an additional bowl of honey or maple syrup on the side for guests who want more sweetness. Perfect with a glass of sparkling wine or a light dry white.

🥡 Storage

If you need to store the ingredients separately: baked beets in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, cheese in the fridge in its original packaging until the expiration date, pomegranate seeds in the fridge for up to 4 days. Do not store the finished tartines for longer than 2 hours at room temperature — the bread will lose its crispness. To refresh slightly hardened slices, briefly toast them at 160°C for 3-4 minutes.
