Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are small to medium in size, with smooth skin and no blemishes. Avoid beets that are too large, as they may be woody.
  • Roast the beets whole: Roasting the beets whole helps to preserve their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a high oven temperature: Roasting the beets at a high temperature helps to caramelize the natural sugars in the beets and create a delicious, slightly crispy exterior.
  • Add some flavor: Before roasting, toss the beets with a mixture of olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. You can also add a splash of vinegar or citrus juice for a brighter flavor.
  • Roast until tender: The beets are done roasting when they are tender when pierced with a fork. The roasting time will vary depending on the size of the beets, but it will typically take around 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Allow the beets to cool: Once the beets are roasted, allow them to cool slightly before handling. This will help to prevent the beets from staining your hands.
  • Peel and slice the beets: Once the beets are cool enough to handle, peel and slice them into desired shapes. You can slice the beets into wedges, cubes, or rounds.

Conclusion:

Roasted beets are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. They can be served warm or cold, and they can be paired with a variety of different dishes. Roasted beets are also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making them a healthy addition to any meal.
