Roasting the Beets
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the beets thoroughly, removing any dirt. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
