Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 235, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 October 1913 — Beet Greens. [ARTICLE]

Beet Greens.

Choose very young beets. Wash with care, taking care that the skin is not broken. Cut off the leaves one inch above the beet. Cook the beets in boiling salted water until tender. If very young, this may take only 45 minutes. Twenty minutes before the beets are done, place the greens in boiling salted water and cook with the cover off. Remove the beets from the water, peel, dice, season with salt, pepper and butter and place in serving dish. Drain the greens, chop and season, and place around the beets.
