Feed The Resistance: Beet Tartare is paired with Commuter Kolsch from One Barrel Brewing!

In Celebration of International Vegetarian Day (tomorrow) and Vegetarian Month (October), we’re going veggie today!  The vegetarian recipe that I’ve been wanting to make for a long time now is actually a bit of a take on a meat dish – Steak Tartare.  It’s BEET Tartare!  The recipe is simple enough – roasted beets (chopped up to mimic the chopped steak in steak tartare), mixed with toasted buckwheat groats (or chopped hazelnuts), some fresh mint and a little salt and pepper.

I was especially looking forward to making this recipe because I know that Dee LOVES beets!  When she saw the recipe, she thought that a good “earthy” beer would make a nice pairing…and the earthy beer she chose was this week’s Tap That beer of the week – “Commuter Kolsch” from One Barrel Brewing Company.
