Prep Time: 00:15

Recipe Time: 02:00

Temperature : 185F / 85C

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 sprig of fresh thyme (optional)
• 4 medium-sized beets, scrubbed and trimmed

Directions

1. Attach an Anova Precision Cooker to a vessel of water and set the temperature to 185°F (85°C).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, and thyme (if using) until well combined.
3. Cut the beets in half, or quarter them if they are large. Place them in a large resealable bag and pour the marinade over the beets. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible.
4. Submerge the bag in the preheated water bath and cook for 2 to 3 hours, or until the beets are tender and cooked through.

Finishing Steps

1. Once the beets are cooked, remove them from the water bath and let them cool for a few minutes. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin from the beets. Serve the beets warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs or crumbled cheese, if desired.
