Yield Makes 3 pint-size jars

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 pounds small to medium red beets (4 or 5), washed well and patted dry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 small onion, thinly sliced
3 cups cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place beets on a sheet of parchment-lined foil; drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Fold edges to form a packet. Place on a baking sheet, and roast beets until tender, about 1 hour. Unwrap; let cool slightly, then peel. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Bring onion, vinegar, water, and sugar to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in beets, apples, and mustard.
  • Divide among 3 pint-size sterilized glass jars using a slotted spoon, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at tops. Wipe rims and then close with screw bands and lids.
  • Submerge jars, covering with water by 2 inches, upright on a wire rack in a large pot of hot water; bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes (or longer, depending on altitude). Remove jars from pot using tongs, and transfer to a layer of clean towels to cool. Once cool, check for a slight indentation in lids, which indicates a vacuum seal. Refrigerate all canned products after opening.

This relish is not good. The beets and apples are not cooked properly and the vinegar is too strong.

I found this relish to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

This relish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar or adding some tart fruit, like cranberries or cherries.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this relish. I'm not usually a fan of beets, but they were cooked perfectly in this recipe. The apples and spices also added a nice flavor.

This relish is a delightful blend of sweet and tangy flavors. The beets and apples complement each other perfectly, and the vinegar and spices add a nice kick. I served it with roasted chicken and it was a hit!
