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).
1 Check the beets every 20 minutes or so to make sure that they have not begun to scorch. If they show signs of scorching, drizzle 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of water over each beet before returning them to the oven.  Large beets may need to cook for more than 1 hour.
