BEETROOT POWDER

Beet powder is made from the root of the beet (Beta vulgaris), which originally comes from the Mediterranean region. After harvesting, the root is gently dried and finely ground, which fully preserves its deep red color and earthy flavor. The powder is used in many ways in cooking and in food production, above all as a natural coloring.

Mildly sweet, slightly earthy and full-bodied in flavor. Beet powder gives dishes a subtle sweetness and an intense color without being overpowering. It pairs well with both savory ingredients and sweet components.

Ideal for naturally coloring and refining dishes. Use beet powder in smoothies, doughs, sauces, soups or even chocolate desserts. One teaspoon is often enough to achieve a vibrant color and a subtle, earthy flavor. It also adds a visual and flavorful accent to risotto, hummus or homemade pasta.

Beets have been prized as a valuable food since ancient times. Their pigment is called betanin and is responsible for the rich red color. In modern cooking, the powder is a popular alternative to the fresh root – easy to measure, long-lasting and versatile.
