How Do You Store Fresh Beetroot
No storage method saves a beet that was already going bad when you bought it. Firmness is king. If a beet feels soft, spongy, or has wrinkles deeper than your uncle’s jokes, it’s a lost cause. Cook it immediately or compost it.
And hey, if you mess up and your beets look like they’ve given up on life, just roast them anyway. A little char and a drizzle of balsamic can fix almost anything. Almost. So go forth, store your crimson roots with confidence, and remember: the beet goes on.
