  1. Peel the beetroot and cut it into small cubes.
  2. Boil in approx. 400 ml of water for 30 minutes. Then strain and collect the liquid in a bowl.
  3. Mix the flour, salt, fresh yeast and psyllium husks. Make a well in the centre and mix the yeast with a little warm beetroot water. Add the remaining beetroot water and mix everything together. Finally, gently knead the chopped beetroot into the dough.
