[@dianebrandenberger7578]

Thank you both so much! I am of German & English heritage, born and raised in Central Texas. My German grandmother (Oma) used to make these pickled beets but not canned, just set for a week in the fridge. Thank you for sharing the canning of them. We love them! God Bless you both!

Hi guys! New subscriber here from Ohio. As soon as I saw you were canning beets I said to myself, these are my kind of people! And then when you added the cloves I was sooo excited!! Thank you so much for sharing! God bless!! 🙂

[@bill2uok753]

[@wendygliddon3350]

Using this recipe today! Can’t wait to taste them, thank you so much for sharing your recipe and your knowledge❤️ God bless!

[@raddis57]

I have started steaming my whole beets with the skin still on them. Thus way they do not loose any flavor at all. The skins will not slip off but peeling is super easy with sharp knife. I like we keeping all the flavor I can in my veggies by steaming. Love pickled beets.

[@audreytempleton4415]

Thank you for the recipe...I love pickled beets and my garden is giving me lots of beets this year..I'm anxious to get those beets pickled .I'm using your recipe...aren't they beautiful in the jars!

[@Winterlily20]

Great video, Thank you!

[@deborahgreen539]

Thank you. I have been canning for the last 2 years and this year i am trying the water bath for beets and veggies...

[@trudytyburski844]

Excellent job. Thank you

[@deborahrusignuolo7612]

Thank you Angela and Jason I enjoy your videos so informative .

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you Deborah....we appreciate your support. God bless

[@dianewoodie3509]

Mmmmmm love pickled beets and these are so good 👍

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much. I know what you mean we love us some pickled beets.

[@loliegagz5724]

You 2 are So Thorough !! I felt very confident in trying pickled beets Thank you

[@citylotgardening6171]

Great video thanks for sharing 👍

[@1954evelyn]

I want to do this too LOL I love pickled beets but didn't know how to do them thank you I didn't even know how to peel them. I really like when Jason asks questions it is questions in my head to ask. Thank you Jason.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

This recipe is really one that means a lot to me. When I eat these beets it brings back so many memories of my childhood. They are the best. Jason said he started asking the question because if they were questions he had then other people probably had the same questions.

[@ericmccann21]

I grew up in the same neck of the woods. I also do salt water fermented Asian style pickling for beets and other root crops. If you like salt and sour you'll love this variation

[@artofcreationhomestead]

That's sounds good....I'm so stuck on this style of beets that it would be hard for me to try them any other way.

[@ericmccann21]

Well until I lived overseas and had beets roasted I didn't think I could like them other ways too but I do now. Sometimes I like to make a few batches of sweet or spiced beets though

[@MoneypitHomestead]

Good morning, not crazy about beets, I wish I was they are so good for you. My grandparents use to have an awesome place in the blue ridge mountains in Brevard. Have a fantastic day, Lisa @moneypit homestead

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Beets are a love em' or hate em' vegetable for sure. The Blue Ridge is the greatest place on earth..Thanks for watching. God bless

[@shermdog6969]

I peel, cube and cook the beets. With that juice I cook down into a syrup and use for pancakes. I doesn't bleed too much of the color out of them.

[@MitchPR08]

Thank you for the wonderful recipe! I didn’t have whole cloves on hand so I used 1/2 teaspoon of Ball Pickling Spice instead. Turned out great!

[@artofcreationhomestead]

that was a good substitute....thanks for watching!

[@nitadavis2485]

Very helpful video.

[@Elsa-it9ct]

So yummy guys! You are both such a blessing to all of us. You guys have so many good recipes and helpful information. Your devotions are inspiring also. Thanks for another A-mazing video.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much. This comment really blessed us both so much. You are a blessing to us as well.

[@larrystone5749]

Good video enjoyed it thx for sharing and the info Be safe God Bless

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@melindaroth214]

OH WOW, I COULDN'T DO ALL THAT. I WOULD BE TO SCARED. YES CHARLIE & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY. YALL ARE PRECIOUS. THANK YALL & GOD BLESS. LOVE YALL.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

It's not really scary, I really love canning so it is fun for me. We love you Melinda.

[@darlenesmith1605]

You too can do this. The key is just getting everything out and set up and ready to go. It's just a few simple steps. You can do it.

[@jeangurupatham6173]

Thankyou

[@citylotgardening6171]

Just made your beet brine recipe and it was awesome 😋

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much.

[@justdanadane]

Red and burnt wasn't in your wedding vows?? Y'all are so dang cute. ☺️ Don't ever lose that energy. I can't speak on beets but this was very informative. I haven't been around canning since I moved away from home. It's amazing all the stuff you have to help with it. Thanks as always for sharing. That recipe could've ended up lost but hopefully, it will continue on for many more generations. ❤️

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much. This really is the best pickled beet recipe I have ever seen. I completely agree that it would have probably gotten lost forever. I think that is the reason my mom gave it to me is because she knew I would keep it going.

[@monicamilks_TN]

Thank you for this video. I’ve been canning tomatoes, cucumbers for pickles. This is my first year of growing my beets. This video was a great teaching video for me. Thank you so much for making this!❤️

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much. I'm so glad this video could help.

[@tinabyrd7532]

Where did u get the funnel n ladle

[@cathycudney393]

I add the beautiful red water you cooked the beets in to the brine instead of plain water. There is so much sugar and vitamins and color in the beet water it's a shame to waste it.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

that's an interesting idea. Let me know how it turned out

[@cathycudney393]

@@artofcreationhomestead I have done this for many years. I just make sure the beets are clean so the juice doesn't taste like dirt. I also make beet juice jelly with it using grape jelly powder. Blessings to you all.

[@donate1sttt]

Fabulous idea

[@lindagurnish7540]

making my second batch...question can i cut the sugar back?

[@wendygliddon3350]

How many pounds of beets for the small brine recipe?

[@patricacompton9603]

That plate is supposed to be on the bottom of the canner to keep the jars off the bottom. This is in the Kerr, Ball, and every other canning book. The plate keeps the jars from the possible exploding from hot spots of the burners of the stove. Your taking a great risk putting the plate on the top instead of where it belongs on the bottom. Its the safety plate for the jars. Please put it on the bottom where it belongs.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

With this canner there is a rack in the bottom that the jars sit on. This canning also has the plate that goes on top. I am doing it completely right. No risk here if you know this type of canner. The top plate will only fit on top. It will not fit on the bottom.

[@vernedadavis367]

What part of Tennessee are you from?

[@brendastiffler5010]

What was the name of the canner?

[@huakau11]

Can I cut them up before cooking it?

[@gailpennartz3317]

You lose color, flavor and nutrients cutting them up before cooking. Best to steam or boil with a couple inches of the tops so they don't bleed out. They peel easier after cooking than trying to do it before cooking.

[@scottsletten9827]

How many lb.s of beets do you need for 4 qt. Of pickled beets?

[@CandiceM-sx5fr]

What is the brand of your pot you put the canned beets in? Love the video but this is intimidating to a first timer.

[@peggyhunt81]

How long will the brine last ? In case I have to much.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

I would say it would last for about 1 to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

[@dianeuplinger5097]

How did you like the white beets? I wasn't impressed with the ones I grew so doubt I'll grow them next year.

[@artofcreationhomestead]

We haven't tried the pickled ones yet, but I tasted them after they were cooked and they were good but not us good as Detroit Dark Red. That is really our beet of choice.

[@mirandavikanderson6958]

How many beets to brine?

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Honestly....however many you want. It's kinda up to you. Beets are different sizes and it will take different amounts based on their size. We never count/weigh our beets when we harvest them. Angela just makes this brine in this quantity and we fill jars with beets til we run out of beets

[@scottsletten9827]

You don't use whole cloves in the brine ?😅

[@wynnerdeb]

I just did this today! I’m pooped! How long do I have to wait to open a jar and see what they taste like?

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Let it go a couple weeks. You could go earlier but to ensure the best flavor wait a couple weeks, pop a jar in the fridge for a day then enjoy.

[@lisagill9971]

💖👼🏻🌺

[@artofcreationhomestead]

Thank you so much for watching.

[@donnarichey144]

I never cut my beets that short, they are going to bleed too much.

[@philcurtis314]

Don't the jars explode when you boil them with the lids on?

[@artofcreationhomestead]

No they will not explode. They can take it. I do a ton of canning every year and have never had a jar explode.

[@philcurtis314]

@Art of Creation Homestead good to know, makes me feel safer. Giving this a try for the first time tomorrow. Thanks for the very quick reply.

[@humblehombre9904]
