Try Eastern European beets soup then. It's also called borscht or barszcz depending on where you want it from.

Lol

As the other guy here said, try borsht ( boršč where I'm from) It is delicious and not very beety even though there's plenty of beets.

I concur

As someone who loves beets, I suggest you have a beet lover make this dip. That way, you can try a tiny bit of it, and even if you hate it, it won't be wasted! I'll try anything once, if I don't like it, I'll try it a second time, just in case it wasn't prepared correctly the first time! Also, borscht is wonderful!!

Exactly. I’ve never had one that didn’t taste like dirt.

@@kt9495I was gonna say the same thing!

That's a chemical that's in beets. Some people have the gene to taste it, some don't. If you do have the gene, you will likely never like beets because they will always taste like dirt to you. It's why it's such a polarizing ingredient.

I've heard mushrooms described as "earthy" too, but I adore them. The problem is that beets just taste like beets 🤢. 😉

@@kaituub I don’t like mushrooms either 🤷‍♀️

Pickled are the best

You need therapy.

My grandmother used to make these. Spicy, sour and still taste like dirt.

"Khryan" - a Russian dish.

​@@angrytedtalks yeah it's delicious. I thought it was Polish.

sounds great

it’s absolutely delicious (I don’t like beet alone)

Sounds delicious! 😋

Botwinka is the best! My Polish husband (from Warszawa) loves it too, makes it himself, and taught me to make it, so it is a regular thing in our household. The only thing I don't like is adding the hard boiled egg, since I don't like them to begin with, but they're easy enough to leave out, and the botwinka is just as tasty without them. Dziekuja!

Sounds good to me!

Polish from Canada. Thanks for your comment. People just don't know what's good. Barszcz z uszkami! Wesolych Swiat!

Sounds like something I would love!!! I love Borsht too.!!!

Put cling film in

@@hermiona1147 I think you’re onto something

You can remove the stains but it takes a long time, making it not worth doing. I'm talking like a month.

It is for this reason that I've just entirely switched to glass Tupperware. Doesn't get stained by my pasta sauce, chili, tumeric curries, etc. My kitchen towels on the other hand...

@@dianaadamo5574 oof that moment I saw him wipe his red hands onto the towel… 😫

Sure ... red velvet cake from scratch is colored with beets.

@@sarahkleimeyer3792 ...i was under the impression that red velvet cake had no beets, the color coming from an chemical reaction with the cocoa.

@@sarahkleimeyer3792 i looked it up and "Traditional recipes do not use food coloring, with the red color due to non-Dutched, anthocyanin-rich cocoa." Apparently traditional red velvet cake had a maroon color and not a neon red color. I didn't know modern red velvet cakes used dye, because red velvet cakes didn't use to be a thing in my culture when I was young and when I read about it I read about the traditional type. But apparently after my teens (maybe in my early 30s) it had a minor trend wave in my country because of how fun the neon red and cream cheese looks.

Yeah, too sweet for my liking

You mean the dirt flavor?😅🤣😂

Exactly

It tastes like mud 😅

I don’t love the smell Silantra, but I do love it and salsa, but too much of it can be overwhelming when it’s fresh and I don’t like too much in there

​​@@Portia620 same here, I don't like cilantro but I will eat salsa with cilantro as long as it is not too much in it. In any other dish, cilantro tastes like crap to me. I know, it sounds weird, but that's me. Oh, and I happen to love beets be it as soup, salad, marinated...😊😮

This is my favorite thing to do. 😂 I also enjoy the particular shade of yellow my utensils turn when I make anything with turmeric.

Use metal then 🤦‍♀️

Metal or disposable utensils? I have some black utensil that have never showed a stain.

They say they’re post to be a super nutritious

I was just going to comment the exact same thing! They really are best raw!

Haven't tried this way.. Would do. Thanks!

Rlly? How do u eat them ? With something or ?

I've had beet lovers serve them in a variety of ways 'guaranteed' to change my mind about beets. They didn't. No matter what you do to them, they taste like dirt. They've tasted like dirt to me for 50 years now. Won't be trying this recipe.

@@pomptonqueen the only way I’ve ever had beets where they didn’t taste super earthy was when they were roasted with a fuckton of curry powder. They were good. Not good enough that I want to have them all the time like that, but good enough that I would probably eat them again

@@talic300 LOL Think of all the stained clothing and equipment we are sparing ourselves. A nice bonus to loathing beets.

laughin at ths comment while drinkin beet juice

@@divyakunwar143same here, I get same reaction when I chop garlic and drink with glass of water after letting it sit for 7-8 minutes. 🧄

I am going to try that. Thanks for the idea.

Same here !

That’s how I make them, roasted or sautéed with salt, pepper, olive oil and balsamic. Sometimes I prefer to sauté because they cook a bit faster when you can put a lid on the pan to let them steam for about 5 minutes

@@cloudwatcher608 they're absolutely delicious!

That is the ONLY reason I'll choke them down, because the doc says they'll help BP

Everyone keeps mentioning the beets in Doug. What did I miss?!
