| 5 | We had too much after growing it and I have tried freezing it by cutting into small pieces and freezing - will probably be only good for roasting but worth a try. joybells2 - 2014-04-20 15:50:00 |
| 6 | These are my favourite ways of using beetroot. herself - 2014-04-20 19:03:00 |

| 10 | My Mum used to make Jellied Beetroot. Wash the beetroot, don't peel. Place in a saucepan of cold water and bring to the boil. Simmer for about 45mins. Don't break the skin or they will 'bleed' - lose their juice. Leave in the water until cool enough to handle. Take them in your hands and rub gently, and the skins will slide off. You can wear rubber gloves if you don't want the juice stain on your hands. Reserve the water. Now, trim the top and base off. Cut into slices. Place in a heatproof dish. Heat 1c of the strained beetroot water, pour over a red jelly...raspberry or the like, add 1/2c malt vinegar. Stir until the jelly has dissolved. Pour over sliced beetroot. Leave to cool....Delicious. elsielaurie1 - 2014-04-20 20:23:00 |
| 11 | Served hot as a vegetable with a topping of sour cream, sprinkle of parsley. I'm sure I had it somewhere with coconut cream! At a long gone favourite Takapuna buffet (Oceans?) they served it in a jelly that might even have been fruit flavoured (tart raspberry?). Very tasty. socram - 2014-04-20 20:24:00 |

| 13 | Borscht is lovely there and many recipes both chunky and sieved. Beetroot relish and chutney are nice too. I have even found a recipe for Rogan Josh using left over beetroot cooking juice (from relish) to make the curry red and flavourful. arielbooks - 2014-04-22 11:34:00 |

Annabel Langbein has a recipe for a mud cake - i made it last weekend, and turned it into muffins, took them too work for morning tea- have made 4 more batches and 2 more cakes it was that good!!! kay34 - 2016-04-21 18:50:00 |
| 20 | Beetroot chutney. Goes well with cheese, pork, sandwiches. This is my recipe improved from Jo Seagars. I bottle them up and use it over the year. Flavour improves as it sits. I make double the recipe if I am bottling. Lol last lot I made I quadrupled the recipe so have plenty at the moment. That was a bit too much but I always have people begging for it so good to have some spares. Beetroot Chutney Add all of the above in a pot and bring to a boil Add 1 TBS of corn flour mixed in a little vinegar to the beetroot mixture. marcs - 2016-04-21 19:45:00 |

| 22 | Here's a recipe for a beetroot salad that I often make: Beetroot Salad (raw) Serves 6 Vinaigrette 500g fresh young beetroots (3 med.) Peel beetroots and grate finely. Mix with dressing and other ingredients. Stand to mellow 30 min or more. Quote I My dressing is a few spoonfuls of greek yoghurt, a few spoonfuls of mayo and lots of garlic, onion, salt and pepper and some sharp vinegar (apple cider works well). The amounts depend on how much veges you have grated. Try it out. Mix all together and serve or fridge for a few hours. Mix before serving. Quote bev00 - 2016-09-22 00:01:00 |
| 23 | The following 3 recipes are in Jpeg formats so suggest to copy and save them on your computer and print to add to your personal folders.... unsure how long TM allow Jpegs (Scanned as Photo like formats) are kept. They are excellent, balanced salads using beetroot. Have had them each at least once in the past couple of weeks. https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/515037381.jpg https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/515037305.jpg https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/515037195.jpg Please these are excellent and virtually a must to keep. Cheers. Edited by valentino at 11:10 am, Thu 22 Sep valentino - 2016-09-22 11:09:00 |
| 24 | This is very nice, and one of my favourites. Raw Beetroot, Walnut and Mint Salad with Cumin Labne 500 grams Greek yoghurt 12 hours prior to making the salad place yoghurt in a sieve lined with muslin or cheesecloth over a deep bowl and leave in the fridge to drain for 8-12 hours until very thick and stiff. Discard the liquid. Edited by valentino at 11:16 am, Thu 22 Sep valentino - 2016-09-22 11:15:00 |
| 25 | And another way of using beetroot. In a green Smoothie, that is 400 to 500 mil cold water, about 60% full of Kale or Spinach or a combination, 2 apples cored and cut into quarters, 3 kiwifruits at least, spoonful each of Bee Pollen, spirulina and chorella, 2 spoonsfuls of Super Green Powder, and about a spoonful plus of stevia plus a grated Beetroot of good size. I have this with my Dinner and breakfast alternating with other various fruit / berry smoothies. But adding the beetroot simply adds that extra dimension of super food.

| 27 | You hate bottled beetroot?....well I recommend for you to try this, a family recipe handed down, there is no exact quantity of beetroot to liquid, but a bit of guess work is involved. Boil for 20 minutes:- Edited by rainrain1 at 8:40 am, Sat 23 Sep rainrain1 - 2017-09-23 08:38:00 |
| 28 | Somebody asked if you needed to cook beetroot before juicing it, the answer is a definite no. I do fromwhereisit - 2017-09-23 14:07:00 |
| 29 | Tonight's dinner included a large tray of baked vegetables: small beetroot, yams, onions, potatoes, carrots, all chopped to roughly equal size and baked for about an hour, stirring about every 20 minutes. About 20 minutes before removing from the oven I added a liberal splashing of balsamic vinegar. Very tasty. trigal1 - 2017-09-23 21:02:00 |
