beetroot
Deep red vegetable
Beetroot is the dark red root vegetable of the beet plant, used in cooking and salads.
The term is standard in British English, where Americans typically say just beet.
Beetroot has an earthy, sweet flavor and famously stains everything it touches: She got beetroot juice on her white shirt.
It appears in dishes from borscht to salads to juice blends.
