BAKED-POTATO-STYLE RED BEETS



Baked-Potato-Style Red Beets image

It's fun to treat beets like baked potatoes sometimes, roasting them skin-on, and serving them with "all the fixings." For simplicity's sake, arrange little bowls of the usual suspects - crème fraîche or sour cream, chives, dill, butter and salt and pepper - and let the diners do the work. For special occasions, you can upgrade the presentation with a dab of caviar or trout roe.

4 medium red beets, scrubbed (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Salt and pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
3 tablespoons snipped chives
3 tablespoons snipped dill
A few sprigs of cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put scrubbed beets in a small roasting pan filled with an inch of water. Cover tightly and bake until beets are tender when probed with a paring knife or skewer, about 1 hour. (Cook beets ahead and reheat if you wish.)
  • When beets are ready, place them on a platter, unpeeled, and split them top to bottom with a paring knife. Season cut sides with salt and pepper. Top each beet half with a little butter and a generous spoonful of crème fraîche. Sprinkle with chives and dill, and cilantro (if using). Serve piping hot.

GERMAN BAKED RED BEETS



German Baked Red Beets image

This recipe yields a delicious and healthy red beet side dish. The slices will come out slightly crunchy. If you prefer them a little softer just leave them in the oven long enough until they're as soft as you want them to be. The flavour of these beets combines tangy lemon with thyme and honey. It's a great side dish or side salad but you can also use these beets as ingredients for other dishes like pasta salads. This will add some extra colour and flavour. From Baltic Maid.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 kg red beet (2.2 lbs)
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
fresh thyme (or dried)
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Peel the red beets and cut them into 1/2 cm (about 1/4 inch) thick slices. (Warning: This will stain your hands pretty good. So either you wear gloves or be prepared to scrub your hands afterwards.)
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F / 190°C.
  • Place two large pieces of parchment paper on top of each other on a baking sheet. Place the beet slices on the bottom parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, and the honey. Mix until everything is combined. Then add the thyme. It is up to you how much thyme you want to use(the author uses 2 tbls.). Then add some salt and pepper.
  • Pour the sauce over the red beets and cover it with the top parchment paper by twisting the ends together like a bonbon.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the red beets for about 45 minutes or longer if you want them softer.
  • Serve warm or cold.
  • Guten Appetit!

ROASTED BEET AND POTATO SOUP



Roasted Beet and Potato Soup image

I adapted this from a vegetarian soup while my twin toddlers were going through a soup-only phase. They love it. Luckily the rest of the family enjoys it too! It's a nice hearty puree, super-easy to put together, especially if you roast the potatoes and beets beforehand.

ROASTED BEET AND POTATO BORSCHT



Roasted Beet and Potato Borscht image

There are dozens of variations on borscht, the Eastern European beet soup. Some (like this one) are served hot, others chilled; some are pureed until smooth, others are chunky -- but all showcase the beauty of beets. Sour cream is the traditional topping; its tang tempers the sweetness of the beets. When peeling beets, it's a good idea to wear gloves to avoid staining your hands. This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Vegetables" (Clarkson Potter).

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Pick firm, deep-red beets that are about 2 inches in diameter. Smaller beets will cook more evenly and have a sweeter flavor.
  • Scrub the beets well: Use a vegetable brush to scrub the beets until they are free of dirt and debris.
  • Trim the beets: Cut off the tops and bottoms of the beets, leaving about 1 inch of stem.
  • Wrap the beets in foil: Each beet should be individually wrapped in foil, making sure to seal the edges tightly to prevent the beets from drying out during baking.
  • Roast the beets: Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F for 45-60 minutes, or until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Let the beets cool: Remove the beets from the oven and let them cool slightly before handling.
  • Peel and slice the beets: Once the beets are cool enough to handle, use your hands or a paring knife to peel the skin off. Then, slice the beets into desired shapes, such as wedges, cubes, or rounds.

Conclusion:

Baked potato-style red beets are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed in many ways. They can be served as a simple side dish with a dollop of butter or sour cream, or they can be used in more complex dishes such as salads, soups, and stews. With their earthy sweetness and vibrant color, baked potato-style red beets are sure to be a hit at your next meal.
