Dr Gloom 22518 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I don't mind pickled beetroot. Picked anything tbh and I'm happy - gherkins, onions, chillis, eggs et al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15863 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I meant for roasting. (Damn quote function laziness.) Anything to head off another "didn't x so I y" CT scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11076 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Try roasting them in an oven, instead of using the inside of a nuclear explosion. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Use foil. I've just been fiddling around making a filling for ravioli. Finely-chopped almonds, parsley, lemon juice and peanut butter. Pasta machine shall be getting some good use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4920 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Take 2 Microwave (as recommended everywhere online). Not burned and thoroughly cooked, but still just tastes like warmed up beetroot. Can't really see the appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11076 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Take 2 Microwave (as recommended everywhere online). Except BBC goodfood, allrecipes.co.uk, UKTV Good food, deliaonline.com, abelandcole.com, jamieoliver.com and LOVEBEETROOT.CO.UK. They, instead of recommending microwaving beetroot, seem to ignore that all together and advocate, raw, roasting or boiling the veg.

Christmas Tree 4920 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Listen fellas, I flipping did roast the first lot. Microwave was test two. I have two beetroots left. I am however of the opinion that warm beetroot is nowt special, which is probably why 99% of them end up in a jar. Indeed this is no sweet potato.

Christmas Tree 4920 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Big study out today knocking processed red meat. Seems more to do with the added sodium in these meats than anything else. Is there a salt replacement or do people just generally not use it these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inochi 0 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Nah, nobody uses salt these days. Seasoning is so 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you fucked them up in a microwave. Not a fair roasted beetroot test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 47070 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 CT oblivious to the difference roasting has on food to microwaving. Sauté - I'll just use the microwave Grill - microwave should he the same, shouldn't it. Fry - yes, I will fry these. In the microwave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
