easter pastels


I am squeezing another post before taking off for Paris tomorrow.
The first time I cut into a chiogga beet some years ago, it was a whaooo moment.What is that wild looking vegetable doing to my Berkeley tie dye memories ?We love beets here,and we love the mild chioggas.The psychedelic veggie unfortunately goes pale when cooked, so I favored it raw, cut super thin, topping a green salad with a yogurt,cumin, dill based vinaigrette.
