Beetroot 'Badger Flame'

Beta vulgaris

• Perfectly mild and sweet - delightful raw or cooked
• Bright fiery appearance
• Sought after by chefs

This vibrant, oblong cultivar has a starburst yellow, orange and red interior and all the natural vegetal sweetness of a beetroot with minimal amounts of their earthy flavour. Developed over 15 years by renown United States beet and carrot breeder Irwin Goldman, this fascinating beetroot has a low amount of geosmin, the compound that gives beets their earthy or dirt flavor – creating a perfectly mild and sweet golden beet that is delightful raw and cooked.

Each beet averages 3cm wide and 10cm long - cylindrical. We love this beetroot for its bright fiery appearance and its incredible flavour. Sought after by chefs and championed by Dan Barber from Blue Hill at Stone Barns in New York.
