Instructions

Step 1

Wash the beets very well, you don’t have to cut any of the stems off at this point.

Step 2

Place them in the pressure cooker the submerge in water. Do not overfill your pressure cooker with water.

Step 3

Keep water level underneath the line that is marked inside of the pot. Set your pressure cooker for one hour for larger beets and 1/2 hour for small beets, on high.

Step 4

Once they are finished release the pressure. Once the beets cool, you can now cut the stems off from the top and the bottom, then cut a slit vertically into the beet and easily peel off the skin

Step 5

Enjoy alone, or drizzled with honey, over a salad, in your smoothies, for food coloring etc.
