Pickled Beet Relish image

For a more colorful relish, use a combination of red and golden beets. Serve the pickled beets with poached or smoked salmon, or toss them into a salad made with toasted walnuts, endive, and fresh goat cheese.

Yield Makes 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 to 10 small to medium beets, washed
2 cups cider vinegar
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 tablespoons mustard seed

Steps:

  • Place beets in a large nonreactive saucepan, and add enough cold water to cover by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium, and cook until beets are easily pierced with a paring knife, about 45 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture to a colander, and let drain, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Let beets cool slightly, then peel. The beets will be easier to peel when still warm. Cut each beet into quarters.
  • Combine vinegar, reserved cooking liquid, sugar, salt, and mustard seed in a large nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, and continue boiling 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and add beets; let stand, covered, overnight at room temperature.
  • Transfer mixture to jars or airtight containers, and store, covered, in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my relish turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much vinegar.

This relish is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not amazing either. I probably won't make it again.

This recipe is missing some important instructions. It doesn't say how long to cook the relish or how to store it.

I followed the recipe exactly but my relish turned out too vinegary. I think I'll use less vinegar next time.

This relish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make it.

I added a bit of chopped jalapeño to my relish for a little extra spice. It was the perfect addition and really took the flavor up a notch.

I'm allergic to celery, so I substituted it with jicama in this recipe. It worked perfectly and the relish was still delicious.

This relish is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had a few beets that were starting to go bad, and this recipe was the perfect way to save them.

I'm not usually a fan of beets, but this relish has changed my mind. The pickling process mellows out the earthy flavor of the beets and makes them incredibly tasty.
