What to add to the pot to keep beets from being bitter

Cooks advise adding a small pinch of sea or Himalayan pink salt to the water. It can perfectly balance and enhance the flavor of beet juice while reducing metallic or bitter tastes.

Salt also helps to neutralize nitrates, which cause bitterness. Add only 1/8-1/4 teaspoon per 1 liter of water.
