    Homemade pickled beets are easy to make. They add color and flavor to your dinner plates and when prepared ahead of time, are readily available to serve at a moment's notice.

    Ingredients

    • 4 lbs beets (pre-cooked and sliced or diced - keep hot while preparing the pickling mixture)
    • Pickling mixture:
    • 4 cups (960 ml) apple cider vinegar (for a healthier version)
    • or regular white vinegar
    • 4 cups water
    • 2 tbsp (30 ml) salt
    • 2 tbsp (30 ml) ground allspice
    • 4 tbsps whole cloves (to be discarded before filling the jars)
    • 2 cups white sugar

    Directions

    1. First thing is to clean and sterilize 4 quart size Mason jars.
    2. Then, mix all the ingredients except the beets in a casserole and bring to a boil. Boil for 4 or 5 minutes. Place the cooked, sliced beets in the sterilized mason jars, pour the hot vinegar mixture (through a sieve to catch the whole cloves) on top of the beets, up to a 1/4 inch from the top. Seal jars. Cool and keep in a dark place until ready to use as a condiment.
