Worthington Farmers Market: October 11th

"Breathe properly. Stay curious. And, eat your beets"

-Anonymous


The Unbeatable Beets!

                             

Have some leftover beets from the summertime? Beets are one of the most versatile vegetables that summer and fall has to offer! These nutrient dense veggies last quite some time if stored properly!

At the market, look for firm round beets with an intact slender tap root (the tail-like root at the bottom of the beet). Beet greens should look bright and fresh and can be added to salads or cooked like any other leafy green. To store beets, rinse the roots, cut off the greens (making sure to leave about an inch of the stem to prevent the color from bleeding) and place the beets, tap-root intact, in a plastic bag in the refrigerator crisper. Mature beets can be stored this way up to three weeks. Don’t forget about the greens! Wash the beet greens, wrap in a paper towel and store in the refrigerator in a plastic bag. Use the greens as you would in a salad or throw them in a sauté!

Not only are beets delicious, but they are packed with nutrients! Beets are a great source of folate, which can help protect against heart disease and anemia. Beet greens are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, potassium and magnesium.

Read more from this article about all the sorts of ways you can use beets in your next dish!
