We have a contingent of beet fans who’ve celebrated our Steamed and Peeled Baby Beets since the moment they were first introduced. However, there’s a certain type of beet fan—a hardcore beet enthusiast, one might say—who still wants more. For those who revel in the pleasure and versatility of raw, round, red roots, we’ve got good news: Trader Joe’s Organic Beets have arrived!

There’s a good deal of beauty in these beets, starting with their appearance—scarlet bulbs, hand harvested and trimmed in the fields. They are rinsed and gently tumbled over brush rollers to remove the dirt—no synthetic fertilizers or pesticides to wash away, here! One more rinse and the beets are bagged by hand and shipped to our warehouses.

Once they land in your hands, you’ll discover the amazing culinary flexibility of these earthy, slightly sweet gems. Fresh beets can be prepared in almost any way imaginable: Bake them. Boil them. Grill them, or steam them. Leave them raw and grate, or shred them into salads. Use a mandoline to make large, thin slices that you can oven roast for a colorful alternative to potato chips. Use them in baked goods, stir-frys, smoothies, and just about anything else your brain and hands can cook up.
