Pickled Beets
Description
Winter preserve for home canning. Boil the beets until tender, then peel. Pack in layers with garlic into a jar. Pour boiling brine over them and sterilize for 12 minutes. Seal the jars. Turn upside down until completely cool, then store in a cool place. You will need about 250–300 ml of brine per jar. The preserve is ready for winter storage.
