Critical Success Points

  • Adding apple cider vinegar to the beet – preserves the bright color.
  • Do not add water while simmering the broth – ensures flavor concentration.
  • Salt is added only at the end of broth cooking so the meat does not delay cooking.
  • Cook the broth on a very low heat uncovered for clarity.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful with hot oil when sautéing the beet and the sauté.
  • Boiling broth can cause burns – use kitchen gloves.
  • When cutting meat and vegetables, use a sharp knife and work cautiously.
