Bring an array of vibrant colors, enticing flavors, and delightful textures to your plate with this beautiful salad. Tarragon is slightly sweet with a hint of licorice flavor that’s more subtle than in fennel. It melds nicely with the other ingredients, especially the floral Champagne vinegar but fresh thyme or basil would also work in well in its place. You could also swap the vinegar—either white wine or red wine vinegar would give you nice results. When eaten raw and thinly sliced, the beets have delicious crunch. Use a food processor fitted with a slicing blade or a mandoline to slice them paper-thin.
