"Red Velvet" biscuit (natural color)

Beetroot baked in the oven. She was not even very watery, so that she could grind it in a blender, added some oil there. I think it happened because of the vegetable oil. rose by a third somewhere.
We should try with lyrics oil, painfully beautiful color! But our main consumer of sweets is mom, but she can't.

[jenyasan]

jenyasan, thanks for the photo The muffins are delicious, fluffy. And how many pieces did you get? There should be 12 of these out of this test volume)
For the future, beets can be immediately diluted with vinegar and lemon juice if it is difficult to grind them with a blender))

[jenyasan]

jenyasan, very beautiful muffins!

Sivana, and what was your dough consistency?

[Irina]

Irina, the dough turns out like a regular biscuit, maybe a little thinner)) I shifted it into the mold, helping with a silicone spatula))

15 pieces turned out. My molds are low. In standard muffin's, just 12 would be.
Mikhaska, thank you

Clear! I will focus on biscuits!
Here's another thing I want to ask: what if the beets are steamed in a cartoon? My kitchen is so hot. I’ll lay there, bake it in the oven!
I, in principle, have already perked up with cooking it in a cartoon for a couple. It seems that I did not notice that she then gave strong moisture when cutting into salads.

[Mikhaska]

Mikhaska, Irina, do you cook beets in the microwave? It turns out quickly.

Only a baking bag is needed. Wash the beets, put in a bag and tie it well with a knot. You do not need to pierce the bag, but if you are worried that the bag will not withstand, you can make a couple of punctures with a needle. And for 15-20 minutes at maximum power. When finished, remove from the microwave (carefully, hot!), Do not open the bag until the beets have cooled. I cook other vegetables for salads, conveniently and quickly.
We recently discussed at the forum, it turns out that many people cook like that.

[Anise]

Anise, Anya! In general, I never even thought about cooking vegetables in a micron!
Thanks for the way I need it!

This cooking vegetables for salads just demoralizes me!

[Mikhaska]

Mikhaska, Irina, do you cook beets in the microwave? It turns out quickly.

Annushka , by the way, a good option))) I have a special. a bag for baking potatoes in the microwave, I often bake it for Kumpir) In fact, it turns out quickly
We must try to bake beets in it))

for Kumpir

For whom?

For whom?

Kumpir is a popular Turkish dish) Baked potatoes with different fillings))
Delicious

[Sivana]

I have a special. microwave oven bag for potatoes ...
We must try to bake beets in it)))

Sivana, it was my turn to be surprised - what a wonderful bag, the first time I see it. I didn't know there were such people. What's inside?
Why am I worried, there will certainly be juice from the beets in the cooking process, no matter how it stains this wonderful bag and spoils it. What's good about baking bags is used and thrown away. And this same reusable thing, am I guessing correctly? If yes, then I feel sorry for him, he can save for such a beautiful dish - kumpir.
And in it you get baked potatoes? I became interested in this magic bag.

[Anya]

Anya, it seems to me that there is a layer of ordinary synthetic winterizer inside, maybe I'm wrong
This bag is washable. The potatoes are baked-baked, which is interesting, the potatoes are all dry, and the bag is wet, apparently, draws out all excess moisture. I bake potatoes in it, even for your Eastern European bread, then I just puree, quickly
It is also written that you can refresh dried bread in it, I have not tried it)

[Sivana]

What a useful bag! Thank you, Sivana!
And what is it called correctly? I want to look for where it is sold.
P.S. I looked at the photo in more detail, you can see the name - Potato express.

[An]

An, what a pity that we do not live nearby, I would gladly give you such a bag, and the shipment will cost more than the cost of the bag)) Here is a photo in the package

[Sivana]

Sivana, thank you for your desire, this alone warms the soul! Thank you!
It seems that we have this too, judging by the search in Yandex.
The main thing that I now know about the existence of such a wonderful thing, so I'll try to find it.

[Sivana]

Sivana, and where in Almaty you can buy such a bag, don't you know?

[jenyasan]

jenyasan, here is the phone number in Almaty 356-33-82, I took from them.

Thanks!

[Sivana]

Sivana, need your help! I didn't get a sponge cake, like putty inside.
I took first grade flour. The blender grinded the beets only with all the liquid (buttermilk, vinegar, lemon juice) to make a smooth puree.
The dough was not liquid, it was baked in a large form. Where is the mistake?

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, and how long did they bake? Maybe you just didn't get bored? If the form is large, more time is needed.

She baked for over an hour. Grind the beets in mashed potatoes - right, or should there be small pieces?

The mass should turn out like baby puree, without pieces. Light is like putty, how is it? Heavy or liquid?

[Sivana]

Sivana, very dense.

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, how does it taste and what color? In principle, it should be denser than a regular biscuit)

[Sivana]

Sivana, inside the color is rich, beetroot, and the crust is closer to brown. Have jenyasan the photo shows that the dough is loose, but mine is moist and very dense.
I will try to bake again in small tins and use another flour.

I baked this biscuit 3 times. but it turns out brown !!! I do not have Nordic Ware molds and baked in silicone and paper molds. I really want the red color of the biscuit. Help me to understand!!!

[Sivana]

Sivana, and I will soon have little Hairitejiki! They were sent to me today from St. Petersburg! So, so what! Soon I will be able to cook the same (I hope) beauties that you have!

In "Rose" - I baked something big. Something the beets were painfully pale and oaky, and I also got a bitter taste ... B-uh-uh, in short! And, like the first time, the cake was a little undershadowed from my mold ... In general, there was nothing to boast about.
So I didn't show it to you. She was terrible, like a mortal sin because of the pale brown beet!
We brought new beets from the garage ... Now it remains to wait for the molds!
Here! She told everything!

[Mikhaska]

Mikhaska, tell me, where are there still heritages in St. Petersburg? searched

[Marina!]

I, unfortunately, cannot answer you exactly your question, Marina! Girls from St. Petersburg, from Moscow, and from other regions in the profile topic simply report which forms they saw and at what price. And, those who wish to purchase the forms of their choice, write their requests to the girls in a personal. And, everything already depends on the agreements reached ...
The girls are very responsive and readily respond to requests for assistance in purchasing.
So, I advise you to contact St. Petersburg women in that very topic!
Specifically, I was assisted in the acquisition of Hayritadzhey kseniya D. Contact her with a question. Good luck to you!

Thank you

Well, here I am with my report. All recipes, but not red! I also mixed flour and butter, missed it, so the edges turned out to be zebra-like. But delicious! Thank you very much Sivana for the clarification!

[Nade4ka]

Beautiful cupcakes, Nade4ka! And, when I baked my own, I didn't even show it, because they were just brown outside too. And inside - not the same as in Sivana... Even even more brown than yours ... I was so upset that I did not demonstrate ... Apparently, I will have to buy gel dyes ...

[Nade4ka]

Nade4ka, thank you very much for the report. But I am upset because of the not entirely positive result ((I remember how important it was for you that everything was "without jambs." What could be the matter? And Mikhaska, Irina, writes that it turned out brown (
Girls, "Red Velvet" baked with beets for the first time in their lives, and they turned out right away, what is in the photo, although she herself did not expect such a result. The second time I baked a cake in a slow cooker according to the same recipe, the color and taste were also wonderful.Maybe it's the beets themselves? I don't know what to think. I will try again to bake and expose the photo.

[Sivana]

Sivana, and I will soon have little Hairitejiki! They were sent to me today from St. Petersburg!

Irish, Congratulations on your wonderful form)) My favorite. I was away, traveled, so I rarely visited the site)

People, it may be true, in Kazakhstan the beets are richer, but the taste is so unusual, different from the usual biscuit, that the color is no longer so important, again, if you add dyes, you have to remove the beets, then we sacrifice the taste, so we will rehearse again and again!

congratulations on the wonderful form))

Thank you, my dear!
The form is the noblest! The most graceful of all Nordics!
I am also inclined to think that this is our kind of beet ... Although we grow the variety of an exceptionally dark, hyper-saturated color ... But during heat treatment, it seems to lose its colors and becomes pale - brown. Very unsightly to look at.
I will also try to bake more, but now from purchased beets. Maybe something good will turn out with her!

I cooked it today according to this interesting recipe. I did everything according to the recipe, except for the vinegar. Baking biscuit in a large heart shape (like from a quartet), 70 min. My sponge cake inside turned out to be cool too. Burgundy, but cool .. What could be wrong? Can anyone have a perfect cut for this recipe?

I baked a mini-cake according to this recipe, slightly changing it - instead of 150g of beets, I added 120g, rice vinegar -2 tsp, baking powder - 1 tsp.
The result pleased me again))
To clearly show what consistency and what color the dough turns out, I took a photo)

This is a mixture in Thermomix


It's in the multicooker






Decoration made from crumbs of the same biscuit, from them you can understand what color it turned out in the end)

Cutaway cake

[Sivana]

Sivana, Hello!
I have a question for you.
When you make mashed beets, do you add lemon juice and vinegar to it?

[Pastry_girl]

Pastry_girl, did not go to the forum for a long time, was absent))
Yes, lemon juice and vinegar must be added.

Thank you
I made a cake, but it didn't turn out so bright red, cocoa interrupted the color. Yes, and the taste of beets was felt.
