8

medium beets (about 2 lbs)
3

tablespoons butter
4

tablespoons honey (fireweed or sage honey are good)
¹⁄₂

teaspoon ground ginger
salt and pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS

Scrub beets but do not peel.
Place beets in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 40 minutes, or until just tender. Drain.
When cool enough to handle, peel beets, cut into quarters and place them in a oven-proof casserole dish, with a lid.
Pre-heat oven to 350ºF.
In small saucepan, melt butter and mix in honey and ginger. Season with salt and pepper and pour over beets.
Cover with lid and bake 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beets are well glazed.
