Did I mention that I really like beets? Well, sometimes I love beets and sometimes I’m indifferent – it depends on the preparation – but I definitely love beet greens. So there is ample reason to buy and experiment with whole beets.
About a month ago I experimented with beet risotto, and while I thought it was excellent, it made me want my favorite beet salad. So I bought more beets and made the salad, but reserved some of the beets for another purpose. This made my favorite beet salad heavy on the beet greens, and therefore even more awesome ☺.
This time I experimented with pickled beets. . I used a recipe from Gourmet via epicurious and I think it turned out pretty good. With the roasting and boiling and all, possibly not the best thing to prepare in a weekend where temperatures were in the 90’s, but definitely a good time to snack on them!
