Fine, Bucko, I'll take the bait! (I hate to disappoint.)
Aside from the fact that it involves beets, the recipe looks pretty
weird to me. Four egg yolks? Looks more like a recipe for Beets Foo
Yung, emphasis on the FOO! Gack, gack, ptui, and phooey!

Geeze, yoose gotta give it a chance... I'm sure Beet Latkes would be just fine
served with your Fruit marmalade or preserves... what you call one
complimenting the other.

Uh oh, what's Barb doing crocheting a handsome little doll, and where is she
shoving that pointly little stick... yikes, I don't think I have long to live!

Have you actually made this before Sheldon? It kind of sounds interesting,
but I agree with Melba that it seems a little funky. I do like beets tho.
Aren't fresh beets too hard to use this way? I would think that they would
need to be boiled first. Thanks.

I haven't made that exact recipe, yet... but intend to when I harvest my beets
this summer... but I have prepared shredded beets the same as hash browns and
they fry up perfectly without being precooked.

Clean off your glasses! That's not a stick, it's a roll of
toilet paper.

That part may be true - she has "connections" everywhere.


Practice safe eating - always use condiments

Good to know! I'll file this recipe away for one of those times when the
man is out of the house. He hates beets as well as cabbage, fish, crab (I
discovered last night), etc. Soooo boring IMO. He'll criticize my food and
brag about how he once ate boiled cow eyeballs...........whatever.

Oh, bullshit. I most certainly do not have to give it a chance. :-P

Sheldon, there's nothing you might say that will convince me that that
combination is fit for human consumption. Nothing. And it's a waste of
good fruit spread, besides! JAYzuzz!

Heh! No problem! My mom always said that God picks his prettiest
flowers first -- you'll be around a while. "-)

Well, I give points for listing beets first. No reason to read on past that.
