PS. Do peel them before you eat them raw!

Oh my goodness, eat them raw!!
Beetroot is just so delicious raw – juicy and crunchy and sweet… and you get to consume all of those wonderous antioxidants you lose when you cook them!
We chop them into ‘chips’ and use them for dipping, in a lentil and goats cheese salad, but even as a snack by themselves, they are amazing just as nature intended!!

I wish you wrote this two weeks ago. I got some beetroot in my organic delievery and had no inspiration for what to do with it. the only think I made before was pickled beets with my grandma and that took several weeks and many more beets than I had delievered!

one of our favorites is to roast peeled cubed beets w/olive oil & a dash of salt & pepper. then toss that with some goat cheese and thyme and drizzle with balsamic vinegar (or even better with a balsamic vinegar reduction!)

living in Moscow it’s one of the few veg always cheaply available, I have started making soups with it but we love it boiled and sliced with oil, balsamic, fresh basil leaves (purple if you can get it) and goats cheese. Yum yum.

Another great beet salad for summer is to toss cooked beets (red or gold) with slices (or cubed) citrus fruit, like oranges or mandarins, some fresh basil, and vinaigrette – also nice with sliced red onion added.

it’s also really yummy when boiled, colled and chopped, then dressed with mayonnaise, salt, pepper, lots of fresh parsley and chives….. kind of like a potato salad, but with beetroot instead!

I love beetroot soup as well, when we lived in Poland I tried it there with yoghurt or a spoon of sour cream and some pepper and salt. It is also quite popular as the first dish of a typical Polish Christmas meal, when they serve it with dumplings…yum….
