Chiogga Beets (Organic)

Sometimes known as candy cane beets, these beets are named after the coastal town in Italy where they were originally cultivated. Chioggia beets have fuchsia and white stripes which are revealed when sliced open. The stripes fade as the beets cook. Preserve the unique pattern by baking them into chips; pair with cheeses such as goat cheese, gorgonzola or aged pecorino; peel and thinly slice into a veggie wrap or burrito; stew in a vegetable ragout.
