    Lately one of the local grocers has been carrying beets with the most luscious greens attached. (The talented Hutterite farmers here are able to grow and harvest quite late in the year). I lucked out a few days ago while picking my bunches of beets and someone before me had actually removed the greens from what looked like would have been 3 bunches, and set them neatly aside. Can’t imagine anyone not loving beet greens! The grocer said I could have them to add to my bag so I ended up with a whole lot of extra free greens, yum!

    I usually roast my beets unless I'm making borsht but the storing tips were really useful. If I do roast for beet salad I fast saute the greens and incorporate; prefer lemon juice to vinegar, but … apples walnuts and beets make a wicked salad, in which case I use apple cider vinegar, what else. Great video.

    • @mangot589
      @mangot589 2 года назад +2

      Oh I know this is super late, but I AM making borscht tonight and how do you peel them for that? Or is there just now way of getting around the just peeling? Blanching? Anything😩? I hate peeling hard root vegetables🙈.

    Here is a tasty recipe my ex husband had me make. He was from the Ukraine. Take a few pounds of red beets, scrub clean and boil in their jackets until soft. When cool enough to handle, rub the peeling off or use a knife. They slide off easily. Grate in a bowl, season to taste with salt and pepper. Add a few, depending on how much you like, minced fresh garlic cloves, finely chopped walnuts or pecan bits. Add a cup or two of sour cream, depending on taste, and fresh or dried dillweed. Mix thoroughly and add more dill if you want. The colors of the beets and dill are beautiful in a crystal serving bowl!

    I like to boil them and then keep the water and use it for various things. Its great in yogurt with dijon and vineger for a salad dressing. Also ive cooked my rice in the water and tgat works well also.
    Never used the greens though but im gone get on that :p

    Couple of things you could have mentioned is that beets should be used up in the fridge right away and the reason you don't want to peel them is because cutting into them leaks out more of the goodness while they cook.

      Traditional recipe. Scrub and prick with a fork, bake on a bake paper lined tray until it collapses. Any escaped juices can be very sticky. Cool as desired, then cut thick rounds. You can remove the thin peel as you eat, or scoop it out before plating up or for other recipes. Some of the skin can be crunchy. Mum loved these, they are so sweet, I just had far too many as a kid, so I don't eat them any more.

    Here's the wife's recipe for pickled beets. Yes she cheats. LOL When boiling beets simply add the vinegar, sugar and spices directly to the water. Once boiled and soft, allow to cool, then peel and eat....it's already pickled!!!! She won't eat store bought and usually just boils in salted sugared water without the vinegar, this way she only cooks a few at a time and eats them fresh each time. Thanks for the video, it was a great learning experience even for an old timer like us!!

      I've also heard adding the testicles of the Tasmanian Mouse (replacing the Pine Nuts) will boost the libido effect of certain smoothies by nearly 60% when used as a libido stimulant, but you need testicles from about 300 mice for that effect and they are very difficult and rare to source because these mice are very small and quick and difficult to catch... This "aphrodisiac" effect was scientifically discovered and proven while studying the reproductive nature of animals that fed on these mice.

      I make a beet smoothie everyday. Beets, carrot juice, frozen pineapple, frozen strawberry, chia seeds, and ginger. It’s delicious!

    Sadly, beets like so many other veggies have been genetically engineered with sweetness. Maybe I'm the only one who is just so sugar sensitive (any form of sugar, artificial or other even) but I can tell the difference. I loved adding them to my juicing routine but had to stop. so now I do beet powder but even that has been adulterated and companies are using high sugar content beets. I had a brand I liked, they changed their formula, I had to find something else, not realizing the high sugar content until AFTER several days of fatigue and joint pain. I checked the contents and YES big fat sugar!!!! I stopped taking it and the problems went away.
    So that sent me on another hunt and let me tell you, it's getting increasingly difficult to find natural beet powder which should have close to ZERO sugar carbs. If you're diabetic you need to know these things!!

      Maybe there’s some GMO beets. But a lot of beers today have existed for a few hundred years. There was only really a few beers used for commercial sugar production that do have higher sugar content. You can buy the seeds of sugar beets, or of other varieties. Maybe they’re all naturally high but they weren’t genetically modified if they were developed two hundred years ago.

      @@koltoncrane3099 IDK how you can say that but if you've never gone on a sugar fast, your tastebuds would be dulled. It's amazing to me how much sugar has been ENGINEERED into so much produce anymore. I have to disagree with your opinion. I urge you to try it, a sugar fast, a real one. Then by all means let's engage on this subject afterward. And FWIW, I'm a Gulf War Vet, I'm highly sensitive and reactive ot hidden sugars and I can tell you I react to any beet product with UNnatural amounts of sugar in them. When I can locate TRUE unadulterated beet powder, it tastes like theh earth and THAT is how it's supposed to taste.
