Beets belong to one of the most useful vegetables, which must be properly cooked so that the vegetable does not lose its useful vitamins and other important substances.
From the red root vegetable you can prepare a variety of salads: a very simple salad of beets, garlic and mayonnaise or with the addition of pickled cucumber and onion, dressed with unrefined, fragrant vegetable oil.
If you bake beets in the oven, then it retains the whole set of useful substances. Equally effective and the traditional method of cooking in a pot or multivarka. Here the main thing is not to overstay vegetables in water and do not get beets without vitamins, with boiled color. Large and ripe root vegetables are cooked for about 1 – 1.5 hours, medium and young beets – 40 minutes.
If you are fans of cooking in the microwave, this method is for you.
We will not argue about the quality of the products obtained after this device, just sometimes you need to quickly prepare everything and the oven comes in handy.
We put the beets in a bag, cook from 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetable.
After cooking in a pot and after multicooking, microwaving, the root
vegetable
is placed in cold water: the beet thus “reaches”. This is an ancient way to accurately get a fully cooked vegetable, not a technique that has recently been invented, as it is presented by some culinary bloggers who have nothing else to attract attention.
