Origins and Tradition

Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris) is a vegetable cultivated in Italy and Central Europe since the Middle Ages. Preserved cooked in tins, it originated in the early 20th century in Russia and Poland for year-round consumption of **borsch**. In Italy, it became a catering standard in the 1970s and 1980s. The wave cut ("crinkle cut") provides a greater surface area for absorbing dressings and enhances the visual appeal on the plate.
