  • hi
    I just pick them as they are ready and boil with a little stalk and skin on till cooked thru.
    lightly heat some vinigar and brown sugar to taste, add sliced or 1/4 of beets to the vinigar , place in a Jar, keep in fridge and take out as needed.

    I have used this liquid for several batches, add liquid once real dark to mashed potatoe to change colour.


    I also make a preserve fromt he steams, onion, little juice and one graded beetroot, vinigar and sugar.... very good for cold meats.

  • hi,
    If you cook it, slice or dice it, add some mint or your favourite herbs, a little olive oil and pop it in the freezer like that (in portion sizes), it lasts for a decent while, you just take out what you need as you need it. If in a hurry, just add the oil and you can add whatever else you like after its thawed.
  • I did this with turnips once, they were nice.

    I think you can pickle them in whey, ie the liquid that floats to the top of yoghurt. try googling 'whey pickles'
