AKICILJ: the bitter green edition

[mrissa]

timprov has already done the grocery shopping this morning, because he is efficient like that, and he has returned home with beets. Red beets! Golden beets! We have beets. We also have plans for beets.

What we do not have plans for, but have quantities of anyway, is beet greens. They come attached to the beets. They are huge and luxurious and occupying more of our fridge than I really expected.

Does anybody know of anything nice that can be done with beet greens? My mother is not fond of this type of green, so my first line of culinary inquiry is not helping this time around. I like recipes, but I also like "cook 'em for awhile with some of this and some of that" level of specificity--does not have to be measured in tablespoons. (Or coffee spoons. Or T.S. Eliot.) (Bonus points for T.S. Eliot, though.)

Are you coming back for Fourth Street? If you are, we could go to Peninsula or Rice Paper, and you could sit next to people eating coconut in things but could stay strictly de-coconutted yourself.

Let's do it! We can be the Unbecoconutted Corner.

There is much unbecoconutted awesome to be had at these places, I assure you.
