Ingredients
- 700 grams beetroot (about 3 medium beetroots) (see above post for how to choose the best beetroots for pickling)
- 1 cup white vinegar (250 ml)
- 1 cup water (250 ml)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon black peppercorns
- ½ teaspoon whole cloves
- ½ teaspoon ground allspice
Instructions
Boil Beetroot
- Start by washing the beetroots. If they still have stems attached, trim off, leaving a few centimetres attached to the beetroot.
- Place into a saucepan and cover beetroots with water.
- Boil for about 30 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Smaller beetroots might take about 20 minutes and large beetroots might take about 40 minutes or more.
- Let beetroots cool to a warm temperature and then rub off the skins with your hands.
- Slice beetroot (or cut into chunks if preferred).
Pickling Beetroot
- Place beetroot into a sterilised jar.
- Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Pour through a sieve and into the beetroot jar.
- Seal jar and store in fridge.
Notes
- Storing: Once the sterilised jar is sealed, store in the fridge for up to a couple of weeks OR rely on your own knowledge/research on how to can and preserve vegetables.
- Nutrition: The nutrition information is an automatically generated estimate and is not guaranteed to be accurate.
- Tips:
- The easiest way to sterilise a jar is to place the jar, lid and any rubber seal in the dishwasher on the hottest cycle and then allow it to air dry on a clean paper towel.
- Wear rubber kitchen gloves if you want to avoid stained hands. (I don't bother – it only lasts a day!)
- To choose the best beetroots for pickling, look for medium-sized or smaller beetroots that are firm, smooth-skinned, free of blemishes and with fresh greens attached.
