Our striking organic golden beetroot is grown by Dan Gielty on Home Farm, in Ormskirk, Lancashire. Farming from a gorgeous part of the country, Dan's a laid back, salt of the earth chap who grows fantastic onions, spring onions and other veg for us throughout the year.

Abel & Cole handles celery, celeriac, peanuts and nuts on site. Due to our packing process and re-use of boxes there is a risk of cross-contamination from these, and all other allergens.

There is no need to peel or cut our raw beetroot as it will retain its colour and nutrients through cooking if left unspoiled. Gently scrub the beets to clean thoroughly, and twist off the green tops (these are great washed and thrown into a salad!). To boil, put the beetroot in a pan of water, bring to the boil and heat for 40 - 45 minutes. It also works wonderfully when baked or roasted. Beetroot is naturally quite high in sodium so you don’t need to add salt.This vegetable will keep for a fairly long time. To keep at its best, store in a cool area until you are ready to use it. Suitable for home freezing. Don’t forget to wash your fruit and veg before use.
