GRANDMA JACKIE'S PICKLED BEETS [7] image

Yield 5 Pints

Number Of Ingredients 6

20 beets
3 cups white sugar
1 quart white vinegar
1 tablespoon pickling salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 drops oil of cloves

Steps:

  • Sterilize 5 (1 pint) jars with lids and rings. Keep hot. Place beets into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until beets are tender enough to pierce with a fork, but not mushy. Drain and cool, reserving 2 1/2 cups of the water from the beets. When beets are cool enough to handle, peel and trim the ends. Cut into wedges or chunks if desired and pack into hot jars. While the beets are cooking, combine the sugar, vinegar, pickling salt, lemon juice and clove oil in a large saucepan or pot. Bring to a boil. Pour the hot brine over the beets in the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe the rims with a clean towel and seal with lids and rings. Set at room temperature for 24 hours, then store in the refrigerator. Wait a few days before eating to allow beets to soak up the flavor.

I'm allergic to beets. Is there a substitute I can use?

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pickled beets turned out too vinegary.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of beets. But I'm so glad I did! These pickled beets are amazing. I can't get enough of them.

I've made pickled beets before, but this recipe is by far the best. The beets are so tender and flavorful. I will never use another recipe again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had a bunch of beets from my garden and didn't know what to do with them. This recipe saved the day!
