The humble beetroot is a fibrous and sweet anti-inflammatory antioxidant that helps protect against heart disease and cancer. Good for boiling, roasting, and pickling, this winter root keeps well in the fridge, so you can savor it all season long. We find that the optimal texture comes from boiling them first with the skin intact and then peeling them right before roasting. This procedure yields a soft center and caramelized skin. Garlicky tzatziki serves to complement the sugary taste but needs to be prepared the night before to absorb all the flavor. Not to worry, though. It only takes a few minutes to make, and then you simply leave it in the fridge overnight!
