Beets and Pistachio Yogurt

Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss together beets, thyme, 1 tablespoon oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a 13- x 9-inch roasting pan. Spread beets evenly in pan; pour 1/2 cup water into pan. Cover pan tightly with aluminum foil. Bake in preheated oven until beets are tender, about 1 hour. (Larger beets will take longer to cook.) Remove from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.

Remove beets from pan; let stand until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Using a paper towel, rub each beet to remove skin; discard skins. Cut beets in half lengthwise. (Cut any larger beets into quarters.) While beets are still warm, transfer to a large bowl. Add orange juice, vinegar, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and remaining 2 teaspoons salt; toss to coat. Let stand 15 minutes. Toss beet mixture; taste and adjust seasonings, if needed. Set aside until ready to serve.
