Native to Italy, this variety of beet adds sweet, earthy flavor as well as a stunning visual accent to a meal. The lighter coloring of chioggia's won't leave your hands or cutting boards purple as red beets sometimes do.

I wish I could eat these beets raw, because that is when the color is so stunning, but they were too earthy for me, eaten raw. However, roasted the earthiness tamed down and they got very sweet and delicious. The red bled into the white part, though, so the color was less spectacular. I loved them, and will order again! The greens were yummy, too, sautéed up with a little butter and salt.
