Beets
Storage: Store the greens separate from the roots for the best storage life. Beet greens store 10+ days in a bag or tupperware type container in the fridge. Can chop greens to save space. Beet roots can store for months in a plastic bag in the fridge.
Preserve: Pickled beets anyone?
Tips: Only the red beets “bleed” their colour. Golden beets, white beets, and chioggia beets (the candy cane striped ones) all keep their colour to themselves when cooked.
Beet greens can be cooked and eaten the same way you’d eat swiss chard.
