RE: The Cultivated Apothecary: Week 8 Edition 1- Homemade Beet Powder For Energy & Health
I didn't know that about the calcium! BUT THANK YOU!
I do know anytime I have ever seen beets, they are usually pickled; now I know why.
I didn't know if I liked them or not as I never ate any before. I did have some beet water yesterday to sample my experiment and it wasn't too bad. So now I am searching for some easy (starter) beet recipes to make. I'll be heading back to the little stand on Monday probably.
I'm also considering finding a way to use the powder in my lacto-fermented sodas (with the ginger bug)
I love beets and beet greens - its my husbands Ukrainian family that introduced them to me. We could not live without them in our diet. So glad you are playing with them now! I suggest being light handed with the beet powder - it can make things taste a bit "earthy" or at least that's my experience. I used to be big into juicing and for some reason never loved the beet flavour in a raw juice.
