Types

• Red beets: The very commonly found beets. They are dark purple in color, and very sweet.

• Golden beets: These are essential add-ons in the salads, mainly because of the bright yellow color. They are a little less sweet compared to the red beets.

• Chioggia/striped beets: These are naturally striped beets – in subtle yellow or orange or red or a combination of various colors. The color variance however doesn't affect the taste as it often fades while cooking.
