A beet variety from Holland. This smooth, round heirloom beet is completely unlike the traditional earthy beet, it’s the sweetest of all table beets and has a delicious flavor. The raw roots sliced thin are perfect for snacking or salads, but they are also great for cooking. For best color and to avoid green tops, blanch roots by hilling up with soil. All parts of the beet plant are edible.
