How can I determine when is the right time to pick beets?
Beets are ready to be picked when they reach a size of about 1 to 3 inches in diameter. You can gently pull one out of the ground to check its size. Additionally, the tops of the beets should be about 3 to 4 inches tall and the roots should feel firm when squeezed. Harvesting beets in the early morning is ideal for the best flavor and texture.
What fruit and vegetable can you use as a pH indicator?
Red cabbage can be used as a pH indicator for a wide range of pH levels, showing different colors depending on the acidity or alkalinity of a substance. Similarly, beets can also be used as a pH indicator, turning different colors in acidic or basic solutions.
PH scale a vegetable with a pH of 5.3 would be?
A vegetable with a pH of 5.3 would be considered mildly acidic on the pH scale. The pH scale ranges from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most basic/alkaline), with 7 being neutral. pH values below 7 indicate acidity, so a vegetable with a pH of 5.3 falls into this category.
What color are beets after boiling?
Boiling tends to remove some of the blueish-red coloring so that boiled beets appear pale compared to raw beets. However, the color (betanin, not anthocyanin as once thought) is sensitive to pH and can go a yellow-brownish color in alakaline water, or more reddish in acidic water. Adding a little vinegar to the water will maintain the red color. Boiling for an extended time will turn the beets brown.

How do you freeze beets?
For freezing select young red beets. Wash and trim beets tops, leaving 1/2 inch of stems and root to prevent bleeding of color during cooking. Cook in boiling water until tender- 30 minutes for small beets; 45 to 50 minutes for medium size beets. Plunge the beets in cold water and peel as soon as cool enough to handle removing stem and tap root. Cut into slices or cubes. Package into freezer bag (or plastic container), leaving ½-inch headspace. Seal and freeze. You can also freeze the beets first in a single layer on a cookie sheet, and then transfer the frozen beets into the freezer bag or container.
