6 oz. shallots, finely diced

For soy-white truffle vinaigrette: In bowl, whisk together soy sauce, lemon juice, vinegar, truffle oil and olive oil.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. Vinaigrette can be kept, chilled, for up to 1 month. Whisk or shake well before using. Yields 3 cups.

For roasted beets: Place beets in large shallow baking pan; add water, oil and salt. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 350°F for 30 to 40 minutes, or until tender. Cool; peel and cut into equal wedges. Dress with 1 1/2 cups of soy-white truffle oil vinaigrette. Chill until service. Yields 12 cups.

For each serving, to order: Toss 2 cups watercress and 2 tsp. shallots with just enough soy-white truffle oil vinaigrette to coat very lightly, about 1 Tbsp. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place in the middle of the plate; arrange 1/2 cup roasted beets around and on top of the watercress. Crumble 2 oz. goat cheese in small pieces over salad.
