Tips for the Best Beet Salad

• Use a mix of red and golden beets for a beautiful presentation.

• Cook the beets until fork tender so they are easy to peel and slice.

• Allow the beets to cool before assembling the salad to keep the arugula fresh.

• Add the pistachios right before serving to maintain their crunch.

• Let the salad sit for a few minutes after tossing so the flavors can come together.
