Robin Quivers Shows You How To Beet It On “Vegucating Robin”

Robin Quivers from “The Howard Stern Show” got in the kitchen with her right hand vegan man Gavan Murphy for a lesson in cooking with beets. The show is part of her ongoing web series about learning to cook new vegan food, “Vegucating Robin.”
This recipe uses the entire beet, including the beet greens, which Quivers says are full of nutrition. According to Self, one cup of cooked beet greens are full of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and a good source of iron and calcium.
The flesh (red) part of the beets are cooked in boiling water with a pinch of salt for 45 minutes until they are tender to touch.
The leaves can be pulled away from the stalk with your fingers. Maybe this will save you the pain of cutting yourself like Murphy does. The stalks take longer to cook than the greens, so they’ll need to be cooked separate.
The pair saute the stems first in a little olive oil to get them tender.
Beets are nature’s dye, so Murphy recommends playing doctor and wearing gloves before peeling them to avoid that I just killed a vegetable blood-red color of evidence all over your hands.
Watch the clip for the entire instructions and visit Vegucating Robin for the recipe.
