Beets: Pickling Series

Hello Readers and happy Friday!

Last week we started our conversation on pickling, and how it is a great time to start thinking about preserving some of our summertime favorites. This weeks pick is the lovely beet. Beets are great for your body and you can read more on their benefits here.

Here is the process for pickling them it is only 3 steps!

Cut beets for pickling
  1. Slice your beets and place them in a mason jar. I chose to slice these into rounds since I plan on using them in sandwiches, but feel free to slice them however you want.
  2. Next take 1/2 cup of white vinegar ( you can also use apple cider vinegar), 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 tsp of pickling spice.
  3. Boil vinegar mixture for about 5 minutes. Once boiled pour over beets in mason jar and let sit overnight.
