Best Pickled Golden Beetroot Recipes

PICKLED GOLDEN BEETROOT

Steps:

• Boil the beetroot for 15 mins until the point of a sharp knife is easily inserted, then leave to cool. Drain, remove the stalks and peel the beetroot, then thickly slice and pack into a large sterilised Kilner jar (see tip below).
• Tip the sugar, vinegar, 200ml cold water, the spices and bay leaves into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and bubble gently, stirring, for 2 mins until the sugar has dissolved.
• Carefully pour the hot vinegar mixture over the beetroot (you might not need it all), including the spices and bay, then leave to cool, uncovered. Once cool, pour over the olive oil, seal the jar and keep in the fridge for up to a month.

PICKLED BEETS

Steps:

• Remove the skin from the Roasted Beets and slice thinly. Arrange in 1-quart jars alternating layers with the onion. In a small pot boil the rest of the ingredients and pour over the beets. Tightly lid the jars and place in the refrigerator for 3 to 7 days before serving.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl toss all of the ingredients. Place into a foil pouch and roast in the oven for 40 minutes.

PICKLED BEETS

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.

ROASTED GOLDEN BEETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Peel beets, and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks. Combine olive oil, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add beets, and mix until well coated.
• Spread beets out in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan and roast, flipping half way through, until the beets are tender and starting to turn golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, put beets back into the bowl, and toss with lemon zest.

GOLDEN AND PURPLE BEET-PICKLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium pot, cover the beets with cold water and boil until tender. Remove the beets and reserve for another use. Add the vinegar, sugar, turmeric if using golden beets, peppercorns and pickling spice. Boil, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.
• Remove the pot from the heat and let stand until the cooking liquid reaches room temperature. Add the eggs and onions. Cover tightly and refrigerate, turning the eggs occasionally, at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours. Remove the eggs from the liquid and serve.

SWEET-PICKLED SHAVED GOLDEN BEETS

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, sugar, spices, and 2 tablespoons salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Fill clean containers tightly with beets. Add boiling brine to cover completely. Let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate at least 1 week before serving, or up to 3 months.

PICKLED GOLDEN BEETS

Steps:

• Option #1/Boiled Beets: Rinse and top and tail (trim but do not yet peel) the beets. Put them in a pot, cover with cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt and simmer the beets until they are tender and easily pierced by a knife. Take the pot off the stove and remove the beets from the hot water.
• Option #2/Roasted Beets: Place beets on piece of foil, drizzle lightly with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle of black pepper. Close foil tightly and roast at 400º for about 45 minutes. Remove from oven; set aside to cool.
• When the beets are cool, peel them and slice them thinly, about 1/8-inch thick.
• In another saucepan, heat the sugar, dry white wine, champagne vinegar and 1 tablespoon of salt. Simmer and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Add cloves and cinnamon stick to the pickling liquid.
• Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Pour the hot pickling liquid through a sieve onto the sliced beets (I didn't use a sieve and kept the cloves and cinnamon in the pickling liquid). Allow the beets to cool with lid ajar then cover and marinate overnight.
• The beets will be pickled and ready the next day.
• Yield is estimated.
