  1. I made these beets two days before Christmas so that I could enjoy them with our holiday meal however; I forgot to set them out on the table. That worked out well though, because I have been nibbling on them each day since then. I will definitely be making these beets again. Just have to make one tiny alteration...I will cut the beet juice back just a pinch and increase the vinegar because I thought the beets could use a bit more twang.
     
  2. These came out great! The onion rings also had a great distinctive taste and colour that was too good to discard so I served them along-side with a salad. The only change I made was the beets I had were quite large so I had to use a bit more water than I normally would have preferred, so used 50% malt vinegar to add a bit of extra colour.
     
  3. This is almost the same recipe I use to pickle eggs! These are wonderful, and yes, I did make enough to pickle some eggs! They will be great in a couple of weeks! Thnx for sharing your recipe, Coasty. Made for the Voracious Vagabonds of ZWT 6.
