Refrigerator-pickled Beets offer a burst of flavor, turning humble beets into a tangy dish. You can create these vibrant pickles with just a handful of pantry staples and patience. Simply roast the beets until tender, slice them thinly, and prepare a zesty brine infused with cider vinegar, mustard powder, and a hint of sweetness. Once combined, the magic happens as the flavors meld together over time. These pickled beets are a versatile addition to salads and sandwiches or enjoyed straight from the jar.
Ingredients:
2 medium-sized fresh beets
½ cup cider vinegar
½ cup water
3 whole black peppercorns
2 tbsp. white sugar
¼ tsp mustard powder
½ tsp salt
Instructions:
- Thoroughly wash and scrub each beet, then individually wrap them loosely in foil.
- Place the beet in the preheated oven at 400°F and bake for 30 minutes or until soft.
- Once done, remove from oven and leave to cool.
- Once the beets are cool, gently peel off the skin using a paper towel and slice thinly.
- Add cider vinegar, water, salt, mustard powder, sugar, and black peppercorns in a saucepan.
- Bring to a boil, remove from heat immediately and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Put the peppercorns and beet slices into a clean glass jar holding about 1 quart (or two jars holding about ½ quart) for even pickling.
- Pour the brine over the beets, ensuring they are completely covered, and seal the jar(s) tightly with lids.
- Allow the jar(s) to sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours, then move them to the refrigerator to cool.
