About Detroit Dark Red beet leaf
Detroit Dark Red beet leaf is the leafy top of the Detroit Dark Red beet, a cultivar grown for its red-rooted beet. The leaves are broad, green and often marked with red veins or stems; they have a tender-to-firm texture and a mild, earthy flavour typical of beet greens.
The leaves may be eaten raw when young or cooked, and are commonly separated from the root for preparation. Fresh leaves, cooked leaves and leaves with their stems included are different edible portions; the cultivar name does not mean the leaf is the beetroot itself.
