How to Make Bick S Pickled Beets

1. Wash and trim the beets, leaving about 1/2 inch of stem and root attached.
2. Place beets in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces the beets.
3. Drain the beets and, once cool enough to handle, peel and slice or chop them into your desired size (1/2-inch thick slices are recommended).
4. Meanwhile, prepare the pickling liquid: In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, pickling spice, garlic, and onion.
5. Bring the pickling liquid to a boil, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve completely.
6. Pack the sliced beets tightly into sterilized jars. Leave about 1/2 inch of headspace.
7. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the beets, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.
8. Remove any air bubbles by running a knife or chopstick along the sides of the jar.
9. Wipe the jar rims clean, and place lids and rings on the jars.
10. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust for altitude).
11. Remove jars and let cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' as the jars seal.
12. Let the pickled beets sit for at least 24 hours before enjoying. They will develop more flavor over time.
