Boil

Fresh baby beets. Sounds like a chillhop playlist for the cool kids, but these babies are hot stuff. Rinse, trim, and chuck them gently into a pot of boiling water. (Or toss them in olive oil and roast them in a hot oven.) Done to perfection is when they are just tender—maybe 20-40 minutes. You can use grown-up beets too, it just takes longer. Either way, serve with plenty of butter, and these beets will be a smash hit.

(When in doubt, add butter and/or salt.)
