I'm the only one in my family who likes beets. I haven't always liked them. As a child, I thought they came only in jars, and didn't much care for the overpowering vinegary taste. As an adult, I began to appreciate the real flavor of beets and their earthiness. Today I choose my beets at the local farmers market and enjoy thinking about how I want to cook and eat them. The nice thing with beets is that you get two vegetable dishes for the price of one. The greens are great in salads, or especially tasty when saut?ed in a little olive oil and garlic.
