Wrap whole beets in foil and roast them in the oven. They'll be incredibly tender, rich in flavor, and their color will remain vibrant. A great alternative to boiling. Let them cool, peel them, and then use them to make your favorite appetizers or salads.

We recommend
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 220°C.
- Trim the beet tops, leaving about 1 cm of stem, and set the leaves aside for another use. Wash the beets thoroughly to remove all sand.
- In a large bowl, toss the beets with olive oil, 1 teaspoon water, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Transfer the beets to a large piece of foil, add a sprig of fresh herbs, if using, and wrap everything in foil.
- Place the bundle on a baking sheet and roast until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork, 40-50 minutes, depending on the size of the beets. Carefully open the bundle, being careful not to burn yourself with steam. Let the beets cool for 5 minutes, then peel them while still warm. You can remove the skins with paper towels. Slice and drizzle the beets with your desired dressing and serve.
