RE: What's Cookin' at the Renegades?
Wow, these look delicious! Thanks for teaching me that lemon juice keeps the color in the beets :D We freakin' love beets and their greens. I'm glad we have new Ukrainian friends to teach us a neat trick like that. And LOL @ Elephant Stew :D That's definitely a gem that I'll need to share with my stepmom too, she will get a kick out of it.
And what an adorable little beet leaf roll! Same thing happened to me when I first made tamales until I eventually began just making a bunch of defective small ones because the kids seem to get a kick out of it too :)
It was a cute roll! In Matt's family, they pride themselves on being able to roll the smallest rolls. I think this one takes the cake! LOL! I have never made tamales before, maybe you can share a recipe one day. -Aimee
These recipes are so tasty, I hope you're able to try them one day. I wasn't a huge fan of beets growing up, especially pickled and now I am a convert. I really do think out flavour palette evolves as we age. I actually just learned about the lemon juice trick too! -Aimee
