Pickled Beets recipe needed!!
      09/11/02 10:09 PM

Hi all,

We have a LOT of beets and would really like to make pickled beets....but we're having a hard time finding a recipe that doesn't require a pressure canner. Does anyone have a good recipe they use that they wouldn't mind sharing.

Thanks!
Kevin

If I can remember correctly, Beets need to be cooked for the correct time to ensure all bacteria is killed. Beets are very dense and need to be brought to a temp above boiling, thus the pressure cooker. You could probably use any pickling recipe and cook on the stove until cooked but I think you'd have to eat them within a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the correction. I should have done a little homework first. I've made many pickled beets but not put up in jars. I'd let them sit like fresh dills for a couple of days and then eat em up. And yes I have put the eggs in as well. They go over real big at deer camp every year. I've used a recipe very similar to this

Kevin,

Thanks for the recipe. I've got to say I'm kind of surprised to see cloves and cinnamon in there! Can't say as I've ever tasted cloves in pickled beets before.

Terryinmd, That is excatly how we make them here in ky. They are my most favorite thing from the garden. Especially with spaghetti and soup beans. The ones fixed other ways are the absolute worst thing I have ever eaten especially with the cloves. I guess everyone has their own taste. But I do hate the vinegar smell cooking in the kitchen.
