Mixture of 4 types of Beetroots:
Chioggia Beetroot: Delight in the beauty and taste of this very early old Italian beet variety, prized for its visually striking round roots with sweet, pink flesh veined with white. Known as the candy cane or candy stripe beet, it is celebrated by chefs for its decorative appearance in raw dishes. Note that it tends to lose its vibrant coloring when cooked; for best visual appeal, cook the beets whole, then peel and slice just before serving.
Ägyptische plattrunde: Beetroot type that is short topped and early with dark red flesh. Specially good for early cropping.
Wintersonne: Round, yellow beet that has good, healthy and upright foliage. External colour is orange, inside it is yellow with delicate white rings. Rapid early development and uniform growth, smooth skin.
Foniro: Cylindrical type, uniform dark red colour, can be cut into regular slices when processed.
Key Features:
- Flavor Profile: Sweet with a texture ideal for raw or cooked preparations.
- Visual Appeal: Distinctive colours makes it a favorite for raw culinary displays.
- Versatility: Enjoy it raw, grated in vinaigrettes, or cooked in salads.
