Edible parts

Roots

Recipe idea for your ‘Avalanche Blanc’ beet harvest. Roast the root vegetables in uniform pieces. Brush the roots under water, remove the ends, and only peel if the skin requires it. Cut larger ones into quarters to match their cooking time with smaller pieces. Toss with a drizzle of oil, thyme, and a pinch of salt. Spread on a baking sheet without overlapping, then bake at 200 °C (392 °F), turning halfway through. Check for tenderness with the tip of a knife. Finish with a little lemon juice or apple cider vinegar and serve with a cooked grain. Keep colors separate on the baking sheet if you wish to preserve their contrast when serving. Small roots can remain whole if they are of a comparable size. Thicker skin should be removed before cooking, while clean, young skin can be left on the vegetable.
