Do you like beets? Beet greens are the best! Taste like beets of course!
Y'know...all of those leafy greens are basically cooked the same,, First cut the rib stems out, and then the leafy parts are steamed for a short time in a small amount of PLAIN water! Don't add seasoning! Don't add salt! It fades the bright green color!
Wait until they are cooked and taste them. Mostly, the best taste comes from only a bit of real butter melted over them.
One of my favorites is cooked lettuice! All kinds! Make some, and ask the guests to guess what kind of exotic beautiful pale greens you brought!!!
