Refrigerator Pickled Beets


Since we love refrigerator bread and butter pickles, I decided to give refrigerator beet pickles a try.  They are great and so easy to make. I dug up the last of my garden beets and we will enjoy them as pickles. 

  • 8 medium roasted (or cooked) beets, cooled, skinned and sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 10 black peppercorns

  • Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and mustard to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Simmer for a few minutes; take off the heat and allow to cool a bit.
  • Add peppercorns and beets to clean glass jars with a tight fitting lids.  Pour the brine over, covering all the beets.
  • Cover and set aside until cool; then refrigerate.
