  • Mix together sugar, cornstarch and salt. Stir in a little of the vinegar or wine to make a smooth paste. Add remaining vinegar (or wine) and water. (Adding all liquid at once can produce lumps in the cornstarch.)
  • Cook over low heat, stirring and scraping sides and bottom of pan often; cook until liquid is clear, about 5 minutes. Stir in the beets, butter and orange zest, if using. Leave on the heat until beets are heated through. Serve warm.
