I don't know how to cook beets! Do you peel them before you cook them? How long do you cook them (and, I'm assuming you boil them). This recipe looks fantastic. I can't wait to try it (once I get some beet education!).
Hi There, I'm sorry if I'm responding to you so late.
Yes, you need to boil the beets between 30 minutes to one hour, depend how big the beets are,. The best way to check if they are cooked, is to put a fork or a knife inside, if they are soft, they are done. Let them cool down and peel them
Let me know how it goes.

Thank you! I will make this tomorrow for friends and let you know how it goes.
Delicious! I made this last night, but, of course, didn't follow the directions properly. I segmented the oranges before I finished reading the recipe! So, I chopped them and the beets and served over a bed of organic baby lettuces. AND, since I didn't have any Parmigiano Reggiano I had to use crumbled Gorgonzola. Everyone loved it - the dressing is superb. Thanks for sharing such a delightful recipe.
