Sweet Pickled Beetroot - Mikey - 31-08-2020

Just for PP, and any other that is not particularly keen on a sharp pickled beetroot, here is a recipe handed down from my grandmother.

6lb of Beetroot, boiled until you can stick a knife in and it comes out easily.
1 3/4 Pints Malt Vinegar
1 1/4 Lbs Sugar
2 Tbsp English Mustard Powder
2 Tbsp Salt
2 Tsp Ground Black Pepper

Cook beetroot and chop as per preference, if they are little keep them whole. fill appropriate lidded vessel just below rim. Bring other ingredients to a boil, with the extractor going full blast boiling vinegar really clears the sinuses!! Fill jars to the top and store. Leave at least 3 months before opening so to allow the beetroot to absorb the flavours, these are a great addition to a salad, or my favourite beetroot and cheese sandwiches. Smile

Don’t worry the liquor looks cloudy that’s perfectly normal, it’s the mustard. Big Grin
