Today, I want to share my recipe for pickled beets. I love root vegetables, and beets are one of my favorites. I enjoy them in salads, as a garnish with cornbread and collard greens, or with nothing at all. They are delicious.
My preference is to prepare them using the recipe below. But I also purchase them for the grocery store already in a jar. This is my favorite recipe and I can't remember where I got it from. Anyway, I hope you like it. Here goes.
Ingredients:
A bunch of three or four medium sized beets
1/3 cup of vinegar (there about or to your taste)
1 medium onion sliced
1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar (to your taste)
1 cup of water or about 1 inch of water in a medium saucepan
1. Cut off the top of the beets, peel, and rinse them off.
2. Cut the beets into 1/3 inch slices and place in a medium sized saucepan
3. Add sliced onion, vinegar, sugar, and water
4. Place saucepan on high flame and bring to a boil. Liquid should start to thicken. Lower heat as needed and cook until tender.
That's it. A very tasty garnish that is a great source of probiotics, which aids in the digestion of other foods.
