PICKLED BEETS
This recipe was given to me many years ago by an elderly farmers wife and has been one of my 'must do' yearly canning recipes. If you have a large amount of beets, just keep repeating brine until your beets are all gone! Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place beets in a large stockpot with water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes depending on the size of the beets. If beets are large, cut them into quarters. Drain, reserving 2 cups of the beet water, cool and peel.
- Sterilize jars and lids by immersing in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Fill each jar with beets and add several whole cloves to each jar.
- In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, beet water, vinegar, and pickling salt. Bring to a rapid boil. Pour the hot brine over the beets in the jars, and seal lids.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose firm, deep-red beets for pickling. Avoid beets that are soft or have blemishes.
- Scrub the beets well before cooking to remove any dirt or debris.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the beets into thin, even slices. This will help them cook evenly.
- Bring the vinegar mixture to a boil before adding the beets. This will help to preserve their color and flavor.
- Pack the beets tightly into a sterilized jar. This will help to prevent them from floating and becoming exposed to air.
- Cover the beets completely with the vinegar mixture. This will help to keep them submerged and prevent them from spoiling.
- Seal the jar tightly and let the beets pickle for at least 2 weeks before eating. The longer you let them pickle, the more flavorful they will become.
Conclusion:
Pickled beets are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed on their own or as part of a larger meal.
