Homemade pickled beets, fresh from the garden and delicious. This is a very simple, very old recipe, I have used it for many years and it has never let me down. In this case, I was lucky enough to have fresh from the garden beets which is very nice, that is not always the case for me though. Growing beets in this very hot climate can be very difficult and normally don’t end up being much of a harvest, in this case, the weather gods were on my side for a change.

Ingredients
Beets, the Amount is up to you, see note below.
3 cups of water
6 cups of vinegar
6 cups of sugar
2 tablespoons salt

Note: This makes enough liquid for 6 to 8, 500mm bottles, depending on how well there packed. This is a very easy recipe to scale up or down, once your bottles are full of beets it is easy to figure out how much pickling mixture/liquid you will need.

Directions
Boil beats 2-4 hours depending on size, there cooked when the skin comes off easily when pushed with your finger.
Add water, vinegar, sugar, and salt to a pot and warm over medium heat.
Let it get hot, stirring occasionally, but do not boil.
When you see bubbles forming on the bottom and sides of the pot, it is hot enough.
Add beets to the bottles, make sure the bottles are full but not packed in too tight, the beets are easy to crush.
Fill bottles with the pickling liquid, beets need to be covered, but make sure you leave about 1/2″ (12mm)of headspace.
Clean the rim of the bottle with a paper towel Before putting on the lid.
Note: As I said in the video, this is not a canning video, I normally don’t seal my bottles when I do a small batch like this, I just store them in the fridge till they’re gone.
Beets are ready to eat in a week, 3 to 5 days if you’re in a rush.

The first time I made this recipe on my own I did 50 pounds of beets in one go, big job. My kitchen was red from top to bottom by the time I finished, took longer to clean the kitchen than it did to bottle all the beets, but when it was over I had a mountain of pickled beets and I could not have been happier. I have since learned how to keep the “red” under control and the clean up is easy enough now…lol
