Directions

1. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place beets on a baking tray, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool while proceeding with salmon.
2. Place carrots, celery, onions, bay leaves, peppercorns, and wine in a shallow saucepan. Add water to make 2 inches of liquid; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to barely simmering; add salmon. Cook until flesh is firm but slightly moist in the center, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer fish to a plate; cover with plastic. Cool to room temperature.
3. Peel reserved beets; cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place in a bowl; add remaining tablespoon olive oil, chile pepper, parsley, mustard seed, and vinegar. Toss well to combine; serve over salmon.
