Preparation

  • Step 1

    If not cooking in a fire, preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

  • Step 2

    Wrap each beet in foil.

  • Step 3

    If cooking with a fire, tuck the beets into the bottom center of the bonfire and cook for about 1 hour until charred on the outside and tender on the inside. If using an oven, roast for 60 minutes until the beets are easily pierced with a knife and browned on the outside. 

  • Step 4

    Remove from the oven and unwrap. Once cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1-inch pieces. Serve with a dollop of sourcream and a drizzle of olive oil.
