Beetroot · common
Boltardy
The steady one that won't run to seed when spring turns cold and changeable — reliable, sweet, and the reason a lot of us grow beetroot at all. Sow it early, sow it often, and it rarely lets you down.
in the kitchen
Beetroot, goat's cheese, and walnut salad
Roast whole until tender, then peel and quarter and tumble onto a plate with crumbled goat's cheese, toasted walnuts and a dressing of balsamic and olive oil. A plate that has earned its place.
