This is my preferred method for cooking beets because the little bit of water speeds the cooking time, and the flavor is concentrated because there is no excess liquid to wick the flavor away, unlike when boiled. Plus, this is the best method for cooking a lot of beets in one go with little active attention. Cook as many beets as you want, but don’t stack them or they will cook unevenly.
