Beets are root vegetables with a delicate and slightly fleshy texture. They are easily recognizable by their deep red colour. They are naturally crisp and sweet, and keep all their flavour and antioxidants when cooked—a big plus!
How to pick
Choose beets that are firm, uniformly coloured, and free of bruises.
How to store
Beets can keep in the fridge for up to two weeks in a perforated plastic bag.
They are easy to freeze once cooked and cut into pieces.
HOW TO PREPARE
Enjoy the mildly sweet taste of beets in salads, soups, and sides, or try them pickled.
