Beetroot Candy, 1kg

Candy Beetroot 1kg is 1kg of candy beetroot – also known as Chioggia beetroot, named for the fishing village near Venice where it originated. Candy beetroot has a striking pink and white striped interior revealed on slicing. As a result, it is one of the most visually beautiful of all root vegetables. Furthermore, it has a sweeter, milder and less earthy flavour than standard red beetroot. In particular, the striped pattern fades during cooking, so candy beetroot is best appreciated sliced raw.

About Candy Beetroot 1kg

We source our vegetables and seasonal produce from specialist growers across Britain and Europe. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, condition and provenance. As a result, the produce we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise seasonal and heritage varieties over commodity produce. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or shelf life. However, they require more care and attention to grow. In particular, heritage and specialty vegetables often have shorter seasons and more demanding growing conditions. Additionally, we work with growers who share our commitment to quality. A short supply chain from grower to your door makes all the difference to freshness. That is why Candy Beetroot 1kg from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Candy Beetroot 1kg From Us

Cooking with genuinely seasonal and specialty produce transforms everyday dishes. In contrast to commodity vegetables, these varieties carry a depth of flavour that rewards simple treatment. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, freshness is everything with vegetables. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you cook with produce at its peak. However, even the finest vegetables need a little attention in the kitchen. In particular, most benefit from minimal cooking rather than long boiling. Moreover, good olive oil, sea salt and a little acidity — lemon juice or a splash of vinegar — bring out the best in almost everything. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you cook matters. That is why we choose these ingredients so carefully.

How to Cook Candy Beetroot 1kg

To get the very best from Candy Beetroot 1kg:

• Slice very thinly on a mandoline and serve raw in salads to show the full beauty of the pattern.
• Dress raw slices with good olive oil, orange juice, sea salt and fresh herbs.
• Furthermore, candy beetroot can be roasted at 180°C in foil for 40 to 45 minutes for a milder, sweeter roasted result.
• Additionally, quick-pickle in sweetened rice vinegar for a beautiful pink condiment that holds the colour well.

Perfect Pairings

Candy Beetroot 1kg pairs beautifully with:

• Good goats cheese, whipped ricotta or aged feta alongside
• Blood orange, pomegranate or a citrus dressing to complement the mild sweetness
• A chilled dry rosé, Pinot Gris or a Sancerre alongside
• Smoked salmon, gravadlax or prosciutto as elegant plate companions

Storage: Store in a cool, dark, dry place or refrigerate. Root vegetables keep well for several days after delivery. Furthermore, most roots can be peeled in advance and stored in cold water. However, use as soon as possible for the finest flavour and texture. Delivered fresh and ready to prepare.

However you prepare it, Candy Beetroot 1kg brings a depth of flavour and quality to the table that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, cooking with the finest seasonal produce is one of the great pleasures of the kitchen.
