But given the shape of a beet root, I can see using all my containers/buckets and several trips for sand!
I can easily screen the sand (dead leaves, root bits) and spread it on a tarp to dry.
Quite frankly, I do not know what I might use all the beets for if I get a good crop.
Some pickles. Diced, blanched and frozen will be my favorite.
Might as well do the sand clamping experiment instead of just thinking about it.
I'll post up my recipe for beetroot Za'atar; hopefully tomorrow when I get to town.
It's meant as a side dish though I can happily eat it as a main it is so good.
I get through a lot of beets since discovering it. Also make a lot od beetroot chutneys, pickles and soups.
