This salad, courtesy of [bon appétit](http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/beet-salad-with-miso-and-black-sesame-51209640), uses a fall favorite, beets. Using both raw and roasted beets gives a variety of texture and the miso adds a nice punch of flavor.

Servings: 4

Ingredients  
 6 small beets (about 1 lb.), preferably golden, scrubbed, divided  
 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided  
 Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper  
 ¼ cup white miso  
 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar  
 1 bunch watercress, trimmed  
 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds or toasted white sesame seeds

Preparation  
 Preheat oven to 400°. Place 4 beets on a large piece of foil and rub with 1 Tbsp. oil; season with salt and pepper and close up foil around beets. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until tender, 30–40 minutes. Unwrap beets and let cool slightly. Peel and cut into ½” wedges.  
 Meanwhile, whisk miso, vinegar, remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, and 3 Tbsp. water in a small bowl. Set dressing aside.  
 Thinly slice remaining 2 raw beets on a mandoline slicer. Arrange watercress and roasted and raw beets on a platter and drizzle with reserved dressing; top with sesame seeds.
