How to cook beets correctly
To ensure that the vegetable retains its beneficial properties, taste and color during the cooking process, you need to know what to put in the pot with the beets.
A clever cooking method will help preserve the bright color, taste and freshness of beets for a long time.
When cooking the vegetable, add a little citric acid to the water. Just take one pinch and throw it into the pan with the beetroot at the end of cooking.
