The service in itself to gather around and then the important social gathering with sharing. I love it!! <br />As for beetroot, I use it instead of carrots in carrotcake because I am allergic to carrot. You can also try them pickled and crushed, mixed with f.i creme fraiche, salt, pepper and an egg and into a crisp pieshell, bake for 40 minutes. Yum.<br />I'll definitely will try that salad recipe!!Fairtraderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02517527131786415943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-67334472325585845902016-06-05T07:55:32.131-07:002016-06-05T07:55:32.131-07:00Thanks everyone - some interesting takes on beetro...Thanks everyone - some interesting takes on beetroot here.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-11693890668093017522016-06-05T05:45:02.266-07:002016-06-05T05:45:02.266-07:00Rachel saves her beetroot the same way as me, alth...Rachel saves her beetroot the same way as me, although I use pickling vinegar.

Two years ago, when my sister and I went to Bradfield in South Yorkshire to spend the day with my aunt and uncle J & B, we happened to walk into the village church just as the coffee morning started. In retrospect, I think we should have stayed a little while - we were made welcome enough by friendly people greeting us -, but somehow we felt a bit shy and declined the invitation, moving on for our hike instead.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-16128946370407935242016-06-05T00:01:16.549-07:002016-06-05T00:01:16.549-07:00After they are simmered for two hours they are thi...After they are simmered for two hours they are thinly sliced and preserved in vinegar Wilma and eaten in salads or as a pickle with cheese etc. Delicious.

Yum yum, I will try it out this week but I think I will miss out the prunes as I am not keen on fruit with savory but I don't think that will matter do you? It sounds lovely. Thank you. We also love beetroot and I slowly boil a bunch every Sunday to last us the week.
