Beets please!

Made some pickled beets today. Yum.

Thinly sliced red onions in scalded jars

Layering looks nice and evenly distributes flavors!

Boiling beets if you're me is inevitably messy

But also pretty!

Once softish, beets are removed from water and run
under cold water to remove skins. Slice evenly to match
the onions, and then layer into the jar

Ready to be pickled!

A mixture of about (per 1 lb of beets) 1c apple cider vinegar,
1/4c honey (heated to dissolve with a bit of vinegar),
a few full cloves and a little water is poured into the jars.

Ready to eat in a few hours, refrigerate immediately!
