Preparation of Beets
- 1
Roast the Beets
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets thoroughly, then wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Once done, let them cool slightly before peeling.
