pick when they look ready, small ones for pickling big ones for roasting.
top and tail, place on a backing tray, roast slowly in oven, 130 degrees c for 20 mins should do depending on size, cut an x in the top, pop in a knob of butter and some black pepper, delicous, also nice with fetta cheese.
or borch, or crisps, or raw on salad, mmm love beets, dont forget the leaves on your salad.

Yoanbob,how do you make the beetroot crisps.I've brought them before,but never made them(I like the carrot and the parsnip crisps aswell,but not cooked any myself!)Comment

Yoanbob - your roast beetroots sound delicious - will try it. What kind of vinegar do you use to pickle your beetroot and do you have to put in any spices?
ThanksComment

Beetroot crisps, carrot crisps and parsnip crisps I have never tryed them or heard of them sound very nice
How do you make themSome things in their natural state have the most VIVID colors
