Beets Baked in Foil

This is the single best method for cooking beets. It produces
beets that are firm and not at all waterlogged. And it’s easy, neat, and convenient: Once the beets are cooked,
you can eat them or store them as is. When you’re ready,
unwrap and peel them, then slice them and heat in butter
or oil, eat them cold, or proceed with any other beet
recipes.
Since large beets take longer to cook than small ones,
try to buy beets that are roughly equal in size. And you
don’t have to roast them individually wrapped. If you’re
planning to use them all at once, right away, just put in a
roasting pan or heavy skillet, cover, and proceed as
directed.
Other vegetables you can use: turnips or rutabagas or
other root vegetables.
- 4 large or 8 medium beets, about 11/2 to 2 pounds

Beets Baked in Foil
- Heat the oven to 400F. Wash the beets well. Wrap them individually in foil and put them on a cookie sheet or roasting pan.
- Bake, undisturbed, for 45 to 90 minutes, until a thin-bladed knife pierces one with little resistance (they may cook at different rates; remove each one when it is done). Use in Precooked Vegetables in Butter or Oil or any of the variations on Beets Done Simply or other recipes that call for cooked beets; or store, refrigerated, for a couple of days before using.
