Of late, Chefs in top restaurants have been serving these bloody Beets. I read about the many benefits of Beetroots - rich in the nutrient betaine, which is important for cardiovascular health, blah, blah, blah. Because of this, I’ve tried forcing it down my throat but I simply dislike the taste – be it French, Italian or Asian styled-cooking & usually left it uneaten; till I discover the Beetroot Juice @ Tung Lok.
I guess the sweet Pineapple & sour Lemon somewhat helped to cover up the “raw” taste of this vegetable. These may not be the actual ingredients used @ Tung Lok but it tasted pretty near & I like it! Surprisingly, my fussy son "bottoms up" the entire glass.
The deep crimson colour is lovely to look at but be careful. Wash hands & equipment immediately after use as it can be staining. As a matter of fact, Beetroot dye is also used in ink.
