Made a simple and tasty old fave today: Harvard beets!

[kestrel91316]

Steamed beets, peeled and sliced, set aside. Sauce of cider vinegar, minced onion, sugar, salt, cornstarch.

Yuuuuuummmmmmmm.

1. I love them.

Yummy yummy yummy.

2. I think I made this years ago

They were a side dish for a New England Boiled dinner. The recipes were in a country magazine. It was the first time I ever had hot beets that weren't in soup. I remember baking them in their skins first and they were delicious.

It's so nice to meet other people who appreciate beets!

3. One of my favorite ways to eat them is cooked, peeled, cooled and sliced,

then drizzled liberally with balsamic vinegar.

4. I've got to try that soon

The two flavors must be so good together.

5. Oh, yum!

I came to beets, and other root vegetables very late, but thanx to supernova who posted a wonderful recipe here. I love them all except maybe the parsnips. :hi:

6. Oh yum! I haven't had

Harvard beets in eons! Now I'm going to have to make them! Thanks!

7. You know I was thinking

I would make a red cabbage salad to go with my duck this week, but I just might do these beets instead. :9

8. onions?

I love Harvard Beets, but there are no onions in the traditional recipe. Might be interesting, though.
