About this product
What is beetroot powder?
Beetroot powder is simply organic beetroot with the water taken out. Our premium grade is grown in Germany, Hungary and Italy and milled so that 98% passes a 200 micron sieve, which gives a smooth powder that disperses cleanly. Nothing is added.
How it is made
The beetroot is dried and ground to a fine powder. Because the colour comes entirely from the vegetable, it is as saturated as a fresh beet and stains generously.
What it tastes like
Sweet and earthy in the characteristic beetroot way, with a natural aroma. The colour is a deep claret that turns pink to magenta as it is diluted.
How to use beetroot powder
A spoonful turns a smoothie or a bowl of porridge a deep pink. Use it in red velvet bakes instead of colouring, knead it into pasta or bread dough, whisk it into hummus or a dressing, or dust it over a savoury dish for colour. Season to taste.
