Beets - Basic Purée
1 bunch of fresh beets
1. Wash then peel the beets (be sure to cut off the tops.) and then cut the beets into small chunks
2. Place chunks into a steamer pan with just enough water visible through the steamer basket. You may also boil them in a scant amount of water if you prefer.

3. Steam until tender
4. Do not reserve any left over water to use for thinning out the beets as Nitrates may seep into the cooking water
5. Place into your choice of appliance for pureeing and begin pureeing. We find a food processor works best to make a really nice textured beet puree.
6. Add water as necessary to achieve a smooth, thin consistency.
NOTE - Man these were messy to feed, but WOW how she enjoyed them!!!
