Remove the beets from oven when tender (you should be able to easily pierce them with a fork). Let them sit until cool enough to handle. When the beets are cool enough to handle, slip their peels off. You can use a paring knife, if you like, but you can also marvel at how easily the peels come off with just a rub of your fingers.
