My grandmother used to buy cases of sweet cherries. She would can them and they were so delicious. She closely guarded them for special occasions. One day I snuck down to her cellar and stole a jar. I thought I was so clever. Imagine my 5 year old disappointnent when they turned out to be baby beets. I found out years later that she hid the cherries behind the beets. As an adult I have grown to love beets.

[@bensgrammy1]

I just plunged them into ice water - just like tomatoes - after boiling, and the skin slides off without using a knife except for cutting the ends off. It doesn't cool the beets very much and they are still warm enough when putting in the jars.

[@LionsLamb79]

My partner and I just had a discussion about beets. It started off with us talking about olives, he doesn't like them and says they taste like dirt. I said what about beets, beets taste like dirt. He said no they don't. We agreed to disagree. I like beets too but they do taste like dirt. He's got a thing about beans too. Says beans taste like stale bread. I can't blame the boy, he's Bahamian, ain't never had my grannies home canned green beans.

[@kimeverhart6253]

They are so pretty! I’m not really a beet fan either...except pickled or...baby beets, golden and red, roasted and warm and placed on a bed of chilled arugula with goat cheese and walnuts with a sweet vinaigrette...I’m telling you, this is the most delicious salad I’ve EVER had!! If you ever see this on a menu somewhere, I really suggest you try it! It’s something special!!

[@bretjoramo1393]

the mrs. here... THANK YOU!!! you can find pickled beets recipes everywhere, but no plain ol' beets! granny always added a spoon of sugar to each jar, not much, say a tsp to a qt. i love them, but hate beets pickled. thank you so much!!!

[@4themotherload]

I hate beets🤢, my husband loves them. He is stalked right now and if you have not guessed his favorite is pickled. Now I will say this, I have a recipe I do with beets and goat cheese, its good, I like it, but like once a year😜 Hope you and your family are doing well.

[@leewillis2908]

Yum. Also love them with blue cheese. 😊

[@coastalfarmhouse1820]

So sweet Leisa how you can and preserve food for Phil even though you don’t like those food items. That’s love.

[@lyndabuchholz1216]

The last time I did beets I dried them. I was surprised at how sweet they were. I can see sugar beets could make sugar.

[@leeannbischoff2751]

The beets you just can are called Detroit Red I planted them in my garden this year can't wait to can them

[@lemoncrinckles]

There's something very satisfying about peeling beets (with a paring knife). I'm a fan. TFS, Leisa. (:

[@anitaaudet8204]

Love them with butter and salt and pepper. I canned a big batch 2 years ago, have 3 jars left.

[@kate739]

maybe it's not for everyone, but i just cut off their tops and bottoms, peel them like a potato and toss them in jars. process accordingly. safes on time and water bill. try it, it is much quicker

Can I cold pack them this way? I like to start everything in pot cold!😁

So beautiful!!!

[@RandeT73]

My husband loves pickled or just plain beets. I don't. All 3 of our kids loved them in the baby food. I buy him a few jars from Aldi. But I told him I could make him some, he goes please don't out of your way, because if I like them then I'll want more and that's too much. Is it just me or watching them bubble after they come out of the canner mesmerizing?

[@katecomella]

What a gorgeous process/tutorial = FABULOUS! ... thanks so much for this upload #LOVEBEETS

[@710LENNY]

You can use an Instant Pot to cook the beets in steam. It takes minutes, and since you are not using gallons of water, you can lift the inner pot out and put it under cold water. Also, was wondering if you ever made beet soup and if so have you ever canned it. Got a hoot out of your comment about paying 26cents for those lids, since the last lids I bought were the ForJars, using your discount code, and since I'm in Canada it worked out to 56 cents a lid. But our Federal Gov't says we're not in a recession and things are going well. Still trying to find out who voted for them.

[@MaryWehmeier]

About how long do you steam them in the IP?

[@710LENNY]

​@@MaryWehmeier This may sound condescending, but it depends how many you want to cook. I look it up each time I want to prep beets (or most other foods for that matter). I just google until I find something I can relate to. I do remember I use a spacer in the bottom of my IP to let the steam circulate better.

[@charlenerogers1730]

I now know what I did wrong last year. I boiled my beets to leave long and then canned them. They were ok but kind of tasteless. I'm trying again this year with this new info. Thanks

[@sherrellloyst1296]

Love beets, I did some dry canned with my canned butter and some in water and some I made into borscht and canned that lol love beets lol

[@villagesteader3552]

I love beets...my big regret this year is not growing any! I had no room. Now I want to go buy some. ♥️👍🌰

YUMMY, I WILL BE DOING PICKLED BEETS AS MY HUBBY AND I LOVE THEM, BUT I MAY ALSO DO REGULAR BEETS.

[@jumpoffa5011]

I love beets too. I'd take them any which way you care to serve them as long as I can have seconds. :-)

[@ReinaMoesDIYinItDesigns]

I’m so happy you showed how full of water your pressure canner should be. Mine said 3 inches of water which I do but it always covers my lids.... thanks a bunch

[@teakkabean5369]

Just this week. I commented that I wanted to do PLAIN beets. 😃

[@grannyprepper1181]

Love me some beets, snack food. My Phil doesn’t like them, they are all mine!!

Canned a bushel today. Also made a few jars of pickled beets as well.

[@suenepa]

I use a clean dish rag-- the skins wipe right off.

[@KCSmith1]

I just canned pickle beets. Well one of those beets just wandered into my mouth! Imagine that! I have decided that I better can more...so plain beets are next.

[@yoopermann7942]

i use plain beets in place of potatoes, mash em butter em salt and pepper they are delicous

[@dvartistdvartist1094]

I canned plain beets and when I removed them from the caner the jars only had 1/4 water inside. NO there was no siphoning. Are these safe? Thank you.

[@roxanne533]

In your area, what is a good price per pound for beets?

[@SuttonsDaze]

Depends, i paid $10 for a half bushel

[@limitedaxcess]

Two years after COVID I paid $1 lb at the farmer's own produce stand 😉

[@mollysmith6055]

Those are some of the prettiest things there are to can. And you are so right about it being a labor of love. Thank you, Leisa!

[@carolsbitesandpieces8127]

Is there someway to preserve the juice from the boiling process to add to the jars instead of water? Can you pour thru cheesecloth a couple of times to remove nasties? Seems like so much nutrition going down the drain?

[@celenaclarke6863]

Beet jelly is delicious and a great use of the water.

[@carolsbitesandpieces8127]

@@celenaclarke6863 That sounds great. I’ve kept the beet juice and did run it though cheesecloth several times and used it in the beets. What I didn’t use in the beets I poured on my plants!!! Got a good recipe for the beet jelly?

[@kathleensemelbauer2629]

Many Receipes suggest using the beet water in the jars instead of water or half beet juice and half water to help keep the nutrients and the color

[@kathleensemelbauer2629]

You can also use the beet juice in garden or to tie die your white t-shirts!😆

[@helenstarr8323]

I use the beet water instead of just plain water. It helps keep the beets red and I think adds good flavour to the beets. If there’s any sediment I use a new or clean cotton cloth for straining water. Cheesecloth is too holey 😂

[@kanderson8981]

First my Grandma, then my Mom, have to have beets for part of a colourful dinner! Lol...something green, something yellow, something orange, something red! Especially Christmas and Thanksgiving😄 Thankyou for another tutorial Leisa.

[@homesteadinthehood11212]

Seems simple enough; thank you for sharing. Be well and be safe. Peace

Nothing wrong with a feast of beets. They are good for the blood. We are waiting for the beets to be ready here. Canned, pickled, doesn't matter, we love beets.

[@PensHensandHoovesHomestead]

Hi Leisa, you said you can add 1 tbsp onion soup mix. Is that just adding the dry mix (1 tbsp) to the jar then add the water?

[@SuttonsDaze]

Yes

[@PensHensandHoovesHomestead]

@@SuttonsDaze sounds amazing, thanks! I think this was supposed to be on your Green Bean video?? LOL Wonder how that happened? Haha

[@theresam1649]

I love beets on my salad with ranch dressing. 👍🏻🥗

[@coralkarrass1834]

I like to roast mine as opposed to boiling. It keeps more of the color concentrated.

[@lindarobb3868]

How do you do that?

[@coralkarrass1834]

@@lindarobb3868 I wash them and poke holes like a potato and place them cut side down in a roasting or casserole dish. Back at 350 until fork tender. Then I just peel the skin with a paring knife carefully and then you can process as you normally would. In order to can them they need liquid but it’s not being double boiled if that makes sense.

[@tondamccarthy6537]

Beets are a pain but I love them 😍

[@lucypumkinjack2984]

Last year my beets were also pale when I canned them. They never come back to their darker color. My beets are served in the PINK!

[@PaulaJoDavis]

Some of mine did that too! What causes that, do you know?

[@leewillis2908]

@@PaulaJoDavis It’s the type of beets. For instance, Chioga beets are striped and would likely can lighter.

Why so much water in the pressure canner? Does it decrease the time to bring the canner up to pressure?

[@redgingerbreadpam]

Oh I love beets too & I especially love your 52 weeks of canning. It feeds my addiction 😁 Today I'm resting from dental procedures done yesterday & watching videos as my inspiration. I'd love to find a great source of beets but down here in South Louisiana, beets are a winter crop, so that's coming soon.

Can you use the standard water bath method as well, or is this strictly pressure canning?

Why don't you use the pressure cooker to precook the beets? My pressure cooker directions are to cook for 6 minutes, cool, slip off skins. Then, put the beets into the jars.

[@mollysmith6055]

Trust the process. The NCHFP guidelines are very straightforward and easy to follow.

[@jet8485]

Oeps.. First time pressure canner here. I boiled my beets and let them cool. Then peeled en sliced them. Now I read in te USDA guide you have to put HOT beets in the jars. Do I have to reheat them? I am afraid they will bleed, because I sliced them already. Please help.

Technically, yes they need to be warm. You could microwave them for a minute

@@reneeruse9584 I pressure canned beets the that I grew myself and they were wonderful, and tasted delicious. The next year I didn’t plant them and bought them from the store. They were horrible.

I canning 7 lbs today that I harvested yesterday evening so I’m excited to see how they do.
