If you a fan of great texture, this “Pasta” is for you. Most of the earthy flavor of the red beets will be lost after cooking the thin strands in salted water, but the texture is phenomenal, assuming you cook them exactly right. Overcooking results in a mushy mess, under-cooking in a mouthful of tough root veggies. But, when done just right – absolute “pasta”- bliss 🙂>
Bon Appétit ! Life is Good !
