Whether preserving a summer harvest or making homemade food gifts for the holidays<\/a>, these spiced pickled beets are nostalgic, unique treats that taste as if they came straight out of Grandma’s kitchen. This easy canning recipe<\/a> transforms fresh beets into sweet, tangy beet pickles infused with cloves, warm cinnamon and allspice.<\/p>\n The process is as easy as boiling the beets, simmering them in a simple brine made with vinegar, sugar, water and spices, and tucking them into jars for a quick water bath. If you’ve never canned before, no worries. You can use this recipe to make quick pickled beets and keep them stashed in the fridge instead for a perfect flavorful addition to salads, sandwiches or snack plates.<\/p>\n Scrub the beets and trim the tops to 1 inch. Place the beets in a Dutch oven and add enough water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot and simmer for 25 to 35 minutes or until the beets are tender.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> If you prefer the deeper, caramelized flavor of roasted beets<\/a>, you can cook them in the oven, then peel them and proceed with the recipe. Just be sure to dry roast them without added oil or seasonings.<\/p>\n Carefully remove the beets from the pot and drain the hot water. When the beets are cool enough to handle, remove the peels, slice off the tops and cut each beet into quarters.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> If your beets are large, cut them into 1\/2-inch cubes or 1\/4-inch slices after quartering for faster pickling and easier eating. Smaller beets, around 1 inch in diameter, can be left whole if you prefer. No matter how you cut them, the key to great pickled beets is keeping them uniform in size.<\/p>\n Return the beets to the Dutch oven. Add the sugar, water and cider vinegar.<\/p>\n Place the spices in the center of a double layer of cheesecloth<\/a>. Gather the corners to form a pouch, then tie securely with kitchen string to create a spice bag.<\/p>\n Add the spices to the pot.<\/p>\n Bring the brine to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot and simmer for 10 minutes. Discard the spice bag.<\/p>\n Carefully pack the beets into four hot pint jars. Ladle the hot brining liquid over the beets, leaving 1\/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar. Remove any air bubbles and adjust the headspace, if necessary, by adding more brine. Wipe the rims, then center the lids on the jars and screw on the bands until they’re fingertip tight.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Overfilling the jars is a common canning mistake<\/a>, so pull out a ruler if needed to ensure you leave enough headspace to achieve a good vacuum seal.<\/p>\n Place the jars in a canner<\/a> with simmering water, ensuring that they are completely covered with water. Bring the water to a boil and process the jars for 35 minutes. Remove the jars and let them cool.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Label and date the jars to know when they were made.<\/p>\n Store cooled unopened jars of spiced pickled beets in a cool, dark location, such as a pantry or cabinet. Once you open a jar, store it in the fridge.<\/p>\n When properly canned, pickled beets can last up to a year. Once opened, the canned spiced pickle beets recipe needs to be kept in the fridge and eaten within a few weeks.<\/p>\n Yes, processing time\u2014the amount of time you must heat jars in boiling water for safe, long-term storage\u2014depends on your altitude. This recipe calls for a processing time of 35 minutes, which is appropriate for elevations up to 1,000 feet. If you live at a higher altitude, you’ll need to increase the processing time as follows:<\/p>\n You can use this recipe to make quick pickled beets<\/a> (also called refrigerator pickled beets) with no water bath processing required. Quick pickle recipes are faster to make than their canned counterparts, but they’re not shelf-stable and must be refrigerated. They should last for two to three months in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n To make quick spiced pickled beets, cook, peel, and cut the beets as directed and put them into a bowl. Then, prepare the brine and bag of warming spices as directed. Instead of simmering the beets in the brine, boil the brine with the spices for about five minutes or until the sugar dissolves. Pour the brine over the beets and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight before eating. The flavor will intensify the longer they sit in the fridge.<\/p>\n These spiced pickled beets make a tasty snack right out of the jar, and there are plenty of dishes that you can add them to for a punch of sweet and tangy flavor. Use them instead of pickles on a sandwich or as a healthy salad topping<\/a>, similar to this harvest salad with cherry vinaigrette<\/a> or winter beet salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n You can also serve pickled beets as a side dish with roasted or grilled meats, like Thanksgiving turkey<\/a> or oven-baked brisket<\/a>. Pickled beets make a vibrant addition to charcuterie boards and savory toast recipes<\/a>\u2014try them on top of crostini spread with goat cheese or ricotta for an easy appetizer or snack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" These spiced pickled beets are a must-try for beet lovers!
