Michael and I are not very good at growing beets. He mostly prefers the greens anyway but I love sweet pickled beets and beets as a side dish and beet salad with walnuts and blue cheese. But we have reached a compromise on golden beets. He says golden beets don't taste as "earthy" as red beets.
Our CSA was offering bulk golden beets so Shana and I split a half bushel (20 lbs) because really, I think 10 lbs is probably more than enough to see Michael and I through the winter. So I ran home with my share and pulled out recipes for Golden Beets in Ginger Syrup and Pressure Canned Beets.
