Victoria’s Pickled Beets

Victoria’s Pickled Beets

INGREDIENTS

Two Big Bunches Of Beets, Cleaned With Greens Removed

1 Cup Malt Vinegar

1 Cup Water

1 Cup Sugar

½ Cup Sliced Red Onion (If Desired)

Salt & Pepper

Place the beets in a large pot with water just coming to the top of the beets.  Boil the beets, until tender when sticking a knife in.  Remove from heat and drain.  Run the beets under cold water to easily remove the skins.  Slice into quarters.

In a medium saucepan heat the water, sugar and vinegar.  Stir until sugar has dissolved.  Add the quartered beets and red onions.  Stir for a minute.  Remove from heat and let sit for about 20 minutes or until room temperature.  Divide beets out into containers for storing in the fridge.  Beets will keep for about 10 days.  This is one of my favorite recipes!
