Hated them as a kid. Mom served them at nearly every dinner. As an adult, I can’t get enough. I love them.
I am a soap maker and use the juice as a natural colorant for some of my soaps.
ROTFL.
It’s never before crossed my mind, but I am willing to give “it a shot.”
I’ll let you know!
Oven roasted with salt & pepper. Great!
No,wait...
OKay. DrO has started eating beets, so now I just have to make a trip across the river to the Liquor store.
I loved beets when I was a kid. My Grandmother would serve them fresh steamed with butter salt and pepper or pickled in the summertime. I have not had them so much as an adult... not sure why. I think I’ll be adding them back into the menu.
It’s vodka! What’s to desecrate?
We’ve squozen our whole supply.
try making Barszcz / borscht — it’s delicious
There aren’t very many foods I won’t eat. Beets made the list.
way 6, pour down toilet!
Cooked ground red beets, fresh horseradish and vinegar, sugar to taste, mix and enjoy.
Best recipe for drinking with beets: One large beet, a quart of Makers Mark. Drink 1/2 of the Maker’s Mark with branch water. Throw the beet out into the yard. Shoot rabbits that go after the beet (be careful of loading the gun with all the MM in you). Have wife retrieve rabbit and clean it. Have her use your best rabbit recipe. Drink rest of Makers Mark while watching her. Eat until you are full.
Where do you get beet juice??
Beets and greens fresh from the garden with a big pat of butter...nom. My wife grows a ton of beets...
Amazon, Swanson’s, any decent health food store...
The Beetlejuice picture cracked me up!
It’s the borscht with the morscht babe?
I just remembered this... I was watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives the other day and one of the restaurants made Beet Sliders. Guy thought they were extraordinary. Apparently they were one of the main attractions of the place and it was within a few blocks of a restaurant that Guy owns (you could tell he was a bit worried about the competition).
