Candied Beet Chips
This ones from a Martha Stewart thanksgiving magazine. We tried it last week simply because we love beets. These are delicious chips. They go with a chocolate beet cake recipe to garnish in the book. We just wanted to eat them. Good thing! Sue
4 baby beets
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
Preheat oven to 250 Degrees.
Slice beets very thin into rounds, preferably on a mandoline, so they're VERY thin.
Bring water and sugar to aboil in a small saucepan, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves.
Add beets.
Reduce heat and simmer until slightly translucent, about 30 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer beets in a single layer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with a non stick baking mat (silpat).
Bake until dry and slightly firm, about 1 hour.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
