Another advantage from red and whihte beets: the kitchen stays clean. A very tasty combination of sweetness, a hint of earthyness, nuttiness combined with sage. This is my first recipe from Mark Bittman. I have a food account from the New York Time, were I discovered this for me unusual recipe

    Schön mit der Ringelbete; die hatte ich auch mal im Garten. Salbei und braune Butter – mmmhmmm!

    Ich mag ja auch die dunkelrote erdige Bete – aber ich nasche ja auch Gartenerde, wenn die noch wo dran ist… ;-)
