How to Make Simple Beet Pickles

  1. Wash and trim 1 lb of beets. Wrap in foil and roast at 400°F (200°C) for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. Once cool enough to handle, peel the beets and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
  3. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup white vinegar, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black peppercorns.
  4. Bring the pickling solution to a boil, stirring until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
  5. Pack the beet slices into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  6. Carefully pour the hot pickling solution over the beets, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  7. Remove air bubbles by gently tapping the jars. Wipe the rims clean, and seal with lids.
  8. Let the jars cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving for best flavor. Enjoy!
