Using the Oven to Roast Beets

Beets arrive at your house from the store looking like hard tiny rocks, as anyone who has ever cooked them can attest (and make everything in sight turn pink).

Make oven-roasted beets to save yourself the trouble of peeling and slicing them to fit into the pot. No need to peel or slice, and all the flavor!

Getting Ready Beets

Beets that have been baked are not only delicious but also very simple to prepare. You’ll question your decision to engage in raw combat with them.

• Clean the beets to get rid of any debris or dirt.
• Cut the tops and bottoms off.
• Cut huge beets in half if they are large.

Many chefs like to wear gloves when handling beets! Another reason to adore beets is that the color is so gorgeous. although it’s incredibly potent and tends to leave your skin and fingernails stained (and white cutting boards). Also, put on an apron!

How to Make Beets Roast?

Beets are ridiculously simple to roast. What you need to do after washing and preparing them is as follows:

• Use parchment paper to line a baking dish or a piece of foil. Put beets in.
• Add salt, pepper, and olive oil as desired. Wrap the foil up.
• For about an hour, roast.

So simple, so simple, right? The skins will easily wipe off, which is the nicest feature of this simple side dish. Aren’t you relieved that you skipped peeling them?

Utilizing a paper towel to peel beets

Your oven-roasted beets will be ready when a fork or skewer inserted into them easily passes through.

The nicest part is that you can easily rub the skins off with a paper towel once they have cooled enough to touch after being taken out of the oven. There you go—perfect beets without peeling!

Your baked beets are now simple to slice, cut, or grate. Perfect for a salad of roasted beets (with goat cheese and walnuts).

Because baked beets are so flavorful, they can be served as a main dish instead of a side dish with dishes like Salisbury steak. Just a little salt and balsamic vinegar are all they need for seasoning.

To add color and nourishment to your plate, add roasted carrots and beets. This colorful side dish has a lot of flavor and flair. The carrots can roast alongside the beets in the oven, but you should wrap them separately so they cook more quickly.

Roasted beets: Can You Freeze Them?

Heck Yeah! Beets that have been roasted in the oven keep well in the refrigerator for up to a week and also freeze nicely. Simply cut or dice the food, then place it in freezer bags. That way, they’ll keep for several months.
