Description
Chioggia beet is a treasured Italian heirloom from the Adriatic town of Chioggia, known for its striking candy-striped rings of rosy pink and white. Smooth round roots bring a sweet, mild flavor and a little old-world beauty to the beet row.
Slice them fresh to show off the bull’s-eye pattern, roast them until tender, or harvest young for petite roots and greens. The colors soften when cooked, but Chioggia still carries its charm—a garden classic with history, sweetness, and a surprise hidden under the skin.
