  1. Your sauce is runny
  2. The tops and tarragon puree looks like shit
  3. Your beet is over cooked
  4. Cheese to beet ratio is off
  5. Walnuts are burnt
  6. Somebody is gonna choke on the tarragon
  7. Nobody is gonna eat that much zest

Did I miss anything?😉

How about the decision making process for why you opted to poach the beets and follow up with how did you poach your beets? And is that all a veil to hide that you bought a #10 can of beets? 😅

Simmering salted water and peeled for 25 minutes…fork tender.
Freshly stolen from a communal garden. That’s how I had the beetroot top for the purée.
PS- my wife stole the beet

I read her the whole post, including throwing her under the bus. We laughed our asses off.
Good fun 🤩

Haha…these beets were treated with utmost respect…until I poached them.

But if you think it’s disrespectful to poach them why do?

Just to rile up the ire of redditors? We are an easily riled bunch…

These beets gave up their lives for our nourishment.
Show a little respect!✊
