For each serving, arrange one-fourth of each vegetable on a small plate, overlapping the pieces and, in the case of the golden beet, rolling the slices into cones. Spoon any of the remaining juices from each vegetable on the respective vegetable. Sprinkle the parsley evenly over the artichoke, the mint evenly over the radish, the dill evenly over the carrot and the chives evenly over the beet. Sprinkle the vegetables with pepper.
