Striped Beetroot 'Chioggia' Seeds (2.5 g)

Chioggia striped beetroot — white-burgundy striped, sweet flavour, raw in salad, braised as side.

Chioggia striped beetroot is the most striking of beetroots. Short-season, with a unique white and burgundy striped root — sliced crosswise, you get a wonderful bullseye pattern. Flavour is sweet, milder than the dark red varieties.

Growing

Sow in April–July. Row spacing 40 cm, plant spacing 15 cm, sowing depth 2 cm.

Raw beetroot salad (the stripes really show), carpaccio, braised side with goat cheese. Perfect for elegant presentation.
