Beetroot

What it is

Beetroot is the taproot of Beta vulgaris, the same species as sugar beet and chard.

What it tastes like

The house reads it as earthy, root, mineral ✳ — a known palate, not yet a cited measurement. Among its measured molecules: geosmin.

    cultivar identity, not soil microbes, governs how much of it a beet carries: the parent cultivars 'Touchstone Gold' and 'Chioggia' are used precisely because they 'are known to have relatively low and high mean geosmin concentration, respectively', and the paper cites a broad-sense heritability of 0.90 for geosmin concentration in table beet — Hanson et al. 2021, G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics (Introduction, on genetic control)
