(09/15/2007). Try filling your pan with enough baking soda to cover the bottom of your pan add enough water to cover the baking soda plus about 1-2 inches. Put back onto the stove and bring to a boil, remove from stove and let sit overnight, and wash as usual. This has always worked for me, hope it helps you.

Both are hardy plants that are easy to grow. You might even want to grow them primarily for their leaves, which can be harvested gradually as the plant matures.
Beet Greens Recipe Recipe directions: Wash beet greens well and then separate the stalk from the leaves. Chop the stalk into bite-sized peices, and then rough chop the greens. Heat olive oil in a skillet on medium heat. Add garlic and, if desired, a little fresh hot pepper. Let these ingredients cook for about a minute, and then add chopped green onion bottoms (reserve chopped green onion tops to add later). Cook for 2 minutes and then add the chopped beet stalks. Saute for 1-2 minutes and then add diced tomato. Bring the skillet back up to a simmer. Add salt and pepper and simmer for approx. 5 minutes. Add in a little vinegar. I'm throwing in 2-3 Tbsp by the time the dish is complete, but adjust to taste.
