Seasoned Beet Greens

Seasoned Beet Greens

I harvested some of beets from my garden today! It is looked so fresh and beautiful. It made my day! I love beet greens more than beets. Save the greens and make a delicious side dish!



Ingredients:

2 cups blanched and cut beet greens (about 1 bunch of fresh beet greens)
1 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce (Liquid Aminos)
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seed
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame seed oil
optional:
1 clove fresh minced garlic or garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions:

Add 8 cups of water in a 5 quart pot, bring to boil. First separate stems and greens, then add stems to the boiling water for 1 minute. Add greens for another 2 minutes. Cook together so beet greens are soft but still have crunch.


Remove beet greens from boiling water. Put in cold water to stop cooking and rinse it couple times with cold water, then squeeze water out. Cut beet greens about 1 inch.
In a large bowl, add beet greens, liquid aminos, sesame seed, and sesame oil, mix well with hands and set aside for at least 30 minutes to absorbe the seasoning in the stems before serving.
