How to cook beets properly to preserve their taste and color: the main tricks are named - what you should not forget
Boiled beets are one of the most popular products for making classic salads.
However, there are several complaints about the vegetable.
Housewives often note that the characteristic taste and rich color disappear when cooking. Special tricks will help to cope with these shortcomings, suggests chef Yulia Arkhipova , an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.
What do they consist of?
First, you should choose the beets. We give preference to small vegetables: they will cook faster and will also retain their taste and color. Then we start washing them. You can even use a clean sponge to make sure that all the sand is removed.
Place the beets in a saucepan and add water so that the vegetable is covered.
Wait for the moment of boiling. At this stage, you need to pour in three spoons of vinegar. It can also be replaced with the same amount of apple cider vinegar or a small spoon of citric acid.
Bring the beets to readiness.
Typically this process takes no more than forty minutes.
