Normaler Preis $2.99This gourmet beet is an heirloom from Holland and produces very sweet beets that are pure white. They will not lose tenderness or flavor, even when they get big, and can be used for making sugar. Some people like to use them for frying or pickling. They are high-yielding and do well in storage.
Beets seem to have originated in the Mediterrenean region, where people grew them for thousands of years. Later, beets grew in Germany and Holland and were used as cattle fodder; they were later imported to England for this purpose, but the poor began to raise them for an affordable food source. American colonists later brought them to the New World, where they became a commonly enjoyed food both for their roots and their greens. According to historians, George Washington experimented with beets, cross-pollinating them to create new varieties.
