How to Make Pickled Beets

July is extremely busy on the homestead! Always something to harvest and preserve, Fall seedlings to tend and of course the yard and weeds never stop growing!
Heres the recipe for pickled red beets.
6 cups cooked and sliced beets
2 cups saved beet juice
2 cups vinegar
2 cups sugar
1 TBS salt
Bring all to a rolling boil and ladle into clean jars while boiling, turn lids on and let them set for 24 hours. The lids will seal as the contents cool.
Theres enough vinegar and sugar to prevent botulism.

What a wonderful time for everyone. It's so good to see children having fun and helping like that. Yes God is so good!

I know you put out this video two years ago, but I wanted to share that I just canned for the first time ever and used your pickled beets recipe and process from this video. I’ve been watching for a few months and am sad that I’ve gone through all of your content, but will keep watching! I’ve also started quite the garden for the first time ever and am digging it! Thanks for the inspiration and sharing your recipes, tips, and ways!!!

I love pickled beets, especially with green salad, hard boiled eggs, sunflower seeds, and dressing, croutons, yum!!

You should eat those greens. They’re amazing and extremely healthy for you. You separate the leaf from the stem and then you cut the stem in half cook your stems in a little bit olive oil and garlic just before you put the leaves and squeeze some lemon in it let’s sit for a second or two mix it up and then once they’re a little bit tender, those stems throw in your leaves, a little bit more garlic, and a little more olive oil And squeeze lemon and feta cheese on them and mix it up absolutely amazing eating since I was a kid because we’re Greek and weed every green possible

My sweet mama canned everything… just like you! I can eat a jar of the pickled beets by myself! I helped her and learned so much. I miss her so much♥️🙏

[@amyroberts7248]

Ive never had a beet before but my mother in law loves pickled beets so next year Im going to grow them in my garden and can them up for her for a surprise

[@cindylooney375]

[@pikubird]

Beautiful family and such great helpers those kids. GOD BLESS you all

[@gailpettee7906]

My rabbits really love beet tops❤

[@cbak1819]

I love beet greens with onions. Very good for you as well. Not a Swiss chard fan.. beets are much milder.

[@user-zh3wo6yr6y]

The greens rock!

[@annetteanderson6845]

Great video, my grandmother always made picked beets ❤️

[@lindapotter5750]

Why don't you eat the leaves? They are delicious greens and have more iron than spinach. I put them in ice water to crisp them up, roll from side to side and chiffonade them. Boil them like spinach. I cut the stems separately and eat them like asparagus. Blanch them in ice water. Squeeze excess water out, put them into freezer bags and freeze. I like them with a drizzle of vinegar, salt and pepper to taste and butter...Toss and enjoy. Good for when you thin your beets too. Similar to Swiss Chard.😊😁❤️

This is all so perfect, I miss this sort of life very much. I wish you all the happiness! I am usually boiling empty jars and thier lids when pickling. We, in Russia, also do not use such double lids, interesting, it is for multiple uses, I presume. Seriously, this is so perfect, your kids are so wonderful, dream life ❤❤❤❤

[@luvBrownie22]

Love it! Looks yummmmy. Pickled beets is about the only way I like them. P.S. lovely job editing and uploading this video. I came over from IG & love it, keep it up.

[@Ruthannzimm]

Thank you!!!

[@jaydestun4257]

You should be eating those tops separate the leaves from the stem and cut your stems in half. Sauté them in garlic and involve olive oil and then near the end ones. They started soft put your leaves in break them down a little bit and then squeeze some lemon juice over top put a lid on it pick out the burner, and we are Greek and we eat a lot of those greens like that oh and I should’ve said at the very end. Sprinkle some feta cheese on it for your serve amazing or goat cheese.

[@jenniferr.2122]

Love watching your canning system, I can beets also, just a little different. Glad your kids are helping. That is how I learned from helping and watching my mother.

[@thefrenchgardener1865]

I chop up the beet greens and stems and add them to day old leftover rice that we get from the Chinese restaurant and feed them to the MEAT chickens.....they love it.

[@maryschultze624]

Looks delicious! Thank you for sharing your recipe. God bless

Today June 1 2024 Doesn’t two years make difference when children are growing. They look so much older now❤❤❤

[@cindycampbell4994]

Wow those were big beets!! They look amazing

[@kkelly5303]

Love this. Reminds me of my childhood.

[@dagunnaswife]

We use or beet greens. I sauté them with onion, bacon garlic, salt and pepper. Delicious. But we dont do it often as they will clean you out.

[@cathypeterson5106]

Looking for a pickled beets recipe and wouldn't you know it, you came up. 😊 Im not sure when i subscribed but i know it hasnt been too awful long ago. I absolutely love everything about your channel. I want to be like you when i grow up. Im 58 🤣

[@adontee1960]

[@alainegregory6860]

We cook the beet greens with bacon and onions. So good.

[@shawnswain5813]

I love pickled beets but they are so expensive in the store! I’ve pickled them myself in the past. I used my Instant Pot…I don’t think they make one big enough for all you do!

[@georgiathomlison1244]

I love your patients to teach the children. Sometime it word be faster to do it yourself.

[@potato6658]

Love open kettle method ❣️

[@clairewerthman2467]

I like beets with cottage cheese 😊

[@erinpruitt201]

Yum pickled beets❤❤❤

[@johnreginahenderson7032]

Love this! How long did you process them in the water bath please? Thanks

[@ford4life069]

Question: Beet Sugar. I have a sugar beet variety and was contemplating making sugar. Have you done that before? My understanding is basically small dice the beets, simmer the sugar out of the flesh, strain, and then reduce it down until it breaks into sugar crystals.... I'm wondering if I've missed any steps and thought I'd ask. 🙂👍🏻

[@jade-d314]

Hey Ruth Ann: I know this is 2 years late and I'm tardy to the party, but why don't you eat the beet greens? They're delicious!

[@Joseph_Dredd]

How long did you put the canned beets into the water bath canner for?? 10mins? As an aside. What to use if there's no sugar? Honey?

[@jessy9148]

I have the same question ❓

[@eleanorz9965]

Has anyone tried substituting honey for the sugar? Not a fan of regular sugar.

[@nancyroland6503]

I watched you dry can potatoes. I want to send it to my sister and cannot find it. Could you put it in your mix. Thank You. Love your vidios.

Why so much sugar ? I’m a diabetic

[@nancyroland6503]

Do you eat beet tops when they are young? Delicious.

[@Ruthannzimm]

We have sometimes.

[@Gokywildcats11]

Ever see any deer??

[@joannethomas782]

A previous vlog showed them coming back from deer hunting so there must be some in the nearby area 😊

Today I was trying to find whether you have made a dill pickle video. Instead I found picked beets, which I love! I make mine with only a small amount of sugar and salt ( 2 Tbsp. sugar and 1 tsp. salt per cup of vinegar), since beets are so sweet I think they don't need more sugar. To keep them from being too sour, I add 1 1/2 cups water instead of only 1 cup. I also add 3-4 whole cloves per quart jar. But that's because I just don't like sweet pickled things. You might not like them my way! I still want to know whether you make dill pickles? I do, but I am not completely happy with mine.

[@douglas.howell1959]

Thank you so much for this recipe, just like my momma made. For me.
