Origin: Central Europe
Source: Mary Randolph, 1824
Ingredients
- Red beet roots
- Salt
Instructions
- Red beet roots are not so much used as they deserve to be.
- They are dressed in the same way as parsnips, only they are neither scraped nor cut till after they are boiled.
- They will take from an hour and a half to three hours in boiling, according to their size.
- Send them to the table with salt fish, boiled beef, &c.
- When young, small and juicy, it is a very good variety, an excellent garnish, and easily converted into a very cheap and pleasant pickle.
