âStranger Thingsâ Star Finn Wolfhard Just Got A Record Deal For His Band Calpurnia
Step 5 - Cook the beets. Put similar sized beets (hopefully, they're ALL of a similar size so they take the same time to cook) together with enough boiling water to cover them and cook until tender (usually about 30 to 45 minutes in an open pot, or 10 - 15 minutes in a pressure cooker).
Peel or rub off the skins after cooking. Microwave: Place the beets in a microwave-safe container with a little water for steam and cook on high until tender, about 10 minutes. (Timing, depending on beet size and unit power, may run from 8 to 15 minutes.) Stove top: Boil the beets in water until tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Or steam them, using less water.
