    Cook's tips

    If you prefer, you can remove the skins from the beetroot with a vegetable peeler before cooking. Wearing rubber gloves when preparing the beetroot will prevent your hands from staining.

    Drinks recommendation

    Meaty fish such as salmon can match light reds from the Loire with aplomb.
