Materials of Pickled Beetroot;

  • 1.5 kg of red beetroot
  • 4-5 cloves of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of grape vinegar
  • 1.5 – 2 tablespoons of salt

Preparation of Pickled Beetroot;

  • Wash the beets by rubbing, put them in the pot, add water and 1-2 teaspoons of salt and boil them until they soften.
  • Remove the boiled beets from the water while they are hot and peel them very thinly or rub them with a towel. Cut into quarters or six, depending on the size of the beets.
  • Lightly crush the peeled garlic in salt or cut into 2-3 parts.
  • Put the vinegar and salt in the jar, add 1-2 ladles of hot boiling water, mix and dissolve the salt.
  • After the salt melts, add the garlic, press the chopped beets into the jar.
  • Add the remaining boiling water to the jar and seal it tightly.
  • Leave at room temperature for 2 days. Your pickle is ready to serve in 2-7 days.

If you don’t like the intense garlic flavor in the pickle, you can discard the garlic whole. You can also make your pickles have a more intense color by using the water in which you boiled the beets. Enjoy the pickled beetroot!
