      They look like candy i thought you were going to put sugar on them but I guess with the sugar already in them they would be too sweet. As far as them sticking to pan you can always use silicone pan

      Beet greens and beet stems are the best part of beets. I saute the greens to use on sandwiches, chop and saute the stems separately they're a fantastic side dish. You're really missing out if you just toss the stems and greens.

    I used to roast beets by wrapping them in foil and roasting until soft. When cold I would slice them and serve on greens with goat cheese and pickled onions. Good stuff.

      I love a variety of veggies and really want to eat beets but can't handle the flavor..like eating dirt to me. I love spinach raw or cooked. Do the beet greens also have that same flavor as the root?

    • @virginiaslim6188
      @virginiaslim6188 Місяць тому +1

      @@christinahurt7505 if I hadn't picked them, I never would've known or believed they were beet leaves. We wilted them, and they tasted like spinach x2. We haven't tried them raw yet, because the leaves are large and possibly tough by the time the beets are ready. But if you only want the leaves, you wouldn't have to wait, and they grow quickly. I wonder if the 'dirt' flavor you sense from beets is the same or similar as the effect with cilantro for some people...

    They're best pickled. Believe me. Par boil them, do not throw away the water you use for boiling. They need to be peeled before boiling. Chop them up to your like. Not too small. Place them in a jar, add some vinegar, garlic along with the water you used for boiling and cap it. Wait for a few days and they're ready to eat. I suggest using them in salads. Full of vitamins and minerals.

    • @kaakrepwhatever
      @kaakrepwhatever Місяць тому +11

      You can ferment beets into pickles in a salt brine (1 tsp salt per cup of water). After a week or two, depending on the temperature of your kitchen, the beets will be tangy and pickled. Great with sliced onions, celery, and/or other vegetables. Check recipe videos on youtube.

    Thank you for sharing your recipe- I love beets as well ! I mostly roast them in ghee,which has a higher and longer temperature tolerance and gives a nice flavour. I find
    that it is better to salt them late or after in the cooking process, as they will release less water and the beets will roast rather than stew. My favorite way to eat them
    is tossed with salt,pepper,a bit of balsamic vinegar and topped with lashings of sour cream!

    This looks fantastic. Usually I just cut the ends off and boil the beets whole until you can pierce them with a fork. Then I let them cool, peel off the skin (don't like the skin) then slice and eat. I eat them plain with no seasoning, but I'd love to try this recipe. That would be a nice recipe for golden beets as well, which I adore. I can't find them very often, though. But when I do see them, I snatch them up. They're so good.

    Grilled beets have the best flavour. When they're boiled, all the nutrients end up in the water. My fav variety of beets is Cylindra. They're long, cylindrical in shape, crisp and don't get woody & are just perfect for canning, if you like pickled beets.
