Roasted Beets

SERVES 4

Pull off stalks and slip off skins after cooking these, if you like.

12 medium beets
3 tbsp. olive oil
Salt

Preheat oven to 350°. Trim all but 2" of stalks off the beets. Wash beets; then, while still wet, put into a baking dish lined with a large piece of foil.

Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with salt. Fold foil to seal completely shut. Roast beets until soft (pierce through foil to check for doneness), 2–2 1/2 hours. Unwrap and serve.
