How to peel and juice beets

Ingredients:

• Beet

Preparation:

1. Peel the raw beetroot using a vegetable peeler like the one you use for potatoes.
2. If you want to juice boiled beets, remove the skin by scraping it with your fingers under running water.
3. To juice beets, finely grate raw beets (no need to peel them) on a surface lined with cheesecloth or waxed paper. The finer the holes in the grater, the more juice you'll extract.
4. Collect the grated beetroot in cheesecloth, wrap tightly and squeeze the juice into a large measuring jug.
5. Pour the beetroot juice into a container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It's very strong, so we recommend mixing it with fruit and/or vegetable juice, such as carrot and orange.
