Mrs Wagesu00ae Red Ribbon Sliced Pickled Beets Recipes

Each year, pickled beets are on my list of preserves that I absolutely must make. Some years I do them with the standard array of pickling spices and other years use a slightly sweetened, ginger-spiked brine.nnThis year, I decided to try my hand at this pickled beets recipe using a little bit of help from Mrs. Wages.nnI deviated from the package recipe slightly and used five pounds of beets (simmered until tender, peeled and sliced into 1-inch cubes), the lower end of the sugar suggested, and omitted the onions (simply because I hadnu2019t planned well and didnu2019t have enough in the house). I also found that I needed a good deal more vinegar than the recipe initially calls for, as there just wasnu2019t enough liquid to fully cover the beets.nnOnce I added additional vinegar to create enough liquid, these pickles came together so quickly. Even with my small changes, I still had a yield of six pints. I took a taste while filling the jars and the flavors were spot-on. I particularly liked the addition of the prepared horseradish, as it gave the pickles a gentle spiciness. I plan on giving them a couple weeks to fully marinate before digging in.nnWhat I particularly love about using a Mrs. Wagesu00ae mix is that it takes the guesswork out of the canning process. It allows me to try new flavors without running the risk that it wonu2019t turn out. I also love that itu2019s an entirely acceptable shortcut (itu2019s particularly welcome on hot days when my kitchen begins to resemble a furnace). Iu2019m always delighted with what helps me get delicious food into jars and this pickled beets recipe is up there with the best.

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!

The pickled beets my mother made came from our garden and were canned for the winter months. Even as a child I loved beets because they brought so much color to our table. -Sara Lindler, Irmo, South Carolina
