I thought the beets were a little bland. I might add some more seasoning next time.

I'm not a big fan of beets, but these were actually pretty good. The sour cream and chives really helped to balance out the earthy flavor of the beets.

These braised beets were a delightful surprise! I was expecting them to be earthy and bland, but they were actually sweet and tender, with a hint of tang from the sour cream and chives. I will definitely be making this dish again.
