A classic canned pickled beets recipe, just like my Grandma used to make! This makes 4 pint ( 500ml) jars!

Ingredients
- 4-5 pounds small beets 40 - 48
- 2 teaspoons pickling salt
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 3 cups white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons mixed pickling spice tied in cheesecloth bag
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Wash the beets and remove most of the tops, leaving about 1/2 inch of beet top remaining.In a large boiling pot of water, cook the beets until barely tender.Remove from the stove.
- Submerge the beets in a large bowl of ice water, I find this helps the skins come off with more ease.
- Cut off the tops and the roots completely, then remove the skin.Peel and slice beets into preferred size, I like larger chunks and not slices.
- Combine the vinegar, sugar, water, salt and pickling spice in a nonreactive pot and bring mixture to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer 10 minutes.
- Add the beets to the pickling liquid and return to a boil.Remove the spice bag.Carefully ladle the beets and pickling liquid into hot sterilized pint jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
- Remove any air bubbles with a non-metal utensil.Add additional pickling liquid, if needed, to keep the proper headspace.
- Wipe the jar rims thoroughly with a clean damp cloth, failure to do this can result in the jars not sealing properly!
- Seal the jars and process for 35 minutes in a boiling water bath.
- For altitudes higher than 3000 ft (914 m), add 5 minutes to processing time.
