Beetrelish Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the beets, onion, red bell pepper, celery, sugar, and cauliflower. Season with salt, mustard seed, and celery seed, then stir in vinegar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
• Simmer, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Place all the ingredients into a medium sized saucepan and, over a high heat, stir until the honey dissolves.
• Bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer and cook for about one and a half hours or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the grated beetroot is tender.
• Taste for seasoning while it is still warm and adjust if necessary.

Steps:

• Grate the cucumbers and onions into a large bowl using the large holes of a box grater. Sprinkle the pickling salt over the top. Cover tightly, and allow to rest at room temperature overnight.
• Squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the cucumber mixture; set aside. Whisk together the sugar, flour, turmeric, ginger, and celery seed. Heat the vinegar and water in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Whisk in the sugar mixture until smooth. Stir in the cucumber mixture. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the relish into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process pint jars for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• Place beets in a large nonreactive saucepan, and add enough cold water to cover by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium, and cook until beets are easily pierced with a paring knife, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer mixture to a colander, and let drain, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Let beets cool slightly, then peel. The beets will be easier to peel when still warm. Cut each beet into quarters.
• Combine vinegar, reserved cooking liquid, sugar, salt, and mustard seed in a large nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, and continue boiling 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and add beets; let stand, covered, overnight at room temperature.
• Transfer mixture to jars or airtight containers, and store, covered, in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Bring beet and enough water to cover beet to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer for 45-50 minutes (I boiled mine for closer to 30 minutes). Drain and let cool and then slip skins off of beets and chop in big pieces -- remember to let the food processor do the work!
• Put beets with the remainder of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
• Cover and refrigerate for up to one week.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and blend well. Chill thoroughly.

Steps:

• Bring sugar and vinegar to a boil, add all ingredients (except parsley and olive oil) and cook until beets are tender. Strain, then toss with parsley and olive oil.;

Steps:

• Inspect 4 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until relish is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Combine beets, sugar, vinegar, lemon juice, and salt in a large pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
• Stir water and gelatin together in a cup and add to the beets. Boil for 7 more minutes.
• Pack relish into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly. Store in a cool place.

Steps:

• Cook the beets and chop all veggies fine.
• Mix all ingredients together and put in STERILE jars and seal.
• You can put in a hot water bath for 20 minutes to seal.
• NOTE: You do not have to cook this as the beets are already cooked; everything will meld together and it will be yummy.

Steps:

• Scrub beets and trim tops to 1 in. Place in a Dutch oven; add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 45-60 minutes or until tender. Remove from water; cool. Peel and shred beets., In a Dutch oven, combine sugar and vinegar; cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Stir in shredded beets, horseradish, salt, cayenne and pepper; bring to a boil., Ladle hot mixture into hot 1-pint jars, leaving 1/2-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace, if necessary, by adding hot relish. Wipe rims. Center lids on jars; screw on bands until fingertip tight., Place jars into canner, ensuring that they are completely covered with water. Bring to a boil; process for 15 minutes. Remove jars and cool. If desired, serve on baguette slices and sprinkle with lemon zest.

Steps:

• In a large non reactive saucepot combine all ingredients.
• Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer-stir well.
• Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Pack hot relish into hot sterile jars.
• Leave 1/4 inch headspace.
• Remove air bubbles.
• Wipe rims and adjust two piece caps.
• Process 15 minutes in a boiling water bath at altitudes up to 1000 feet.
• If your elevation is higher than 1000 feet consult the altitude chart posted in the Canning Forum.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. For the tomato purée, halve the tomatoes and place them, skin side down, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the salt, garlic, and olive oil. Roast for 1 hour on the bottom shelf of the oven, then remove. Press through a sieve or pass through a food mill to remove the skins and seeds - you'll end up with about 1 1/4 cups of intensely flavored purée.
• Meanwhile, put the beets into a baking dish and drizzle with a little olive oil. Roast, above the tomatoes, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours (longer if necessary), until the skins are blistered, blackened, and loosened. Let cool a little before peeling. You'll find the skins will slide off easily. Coarsely grate the beets (a food processor makes this job easy).
• Put the sugar, vinegars, onion, and horseradish into a large saucepan; bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato purée and cook for a couple minutes more. Finally, add the grated beets and cook for about 10 minutes, until thickened. Transfer to sterilized jars and seal with vinegar-proof lids (see pp. 21-22). Use within 1 year. Refrigerate once opened.
• P.S.
• It's easy to pickle horseradish root. Just grate enough fresh root to fill a jam jar, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar, top up with cider vinegar, and seal with a lid. Use in sauces, dressings, and soups, and serve with roast beef.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in a blender or food processor and coarsely chop.
• Refrigerate for 2 days before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Wrap beets in double thickness of foil. Roast beets on oven rack until tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Unwrap beets and cool.
• Whisk oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in medium bowl until blended. Mix in onion and horseradish.
• Peel beets; cut into 1/3-inch dice. Add to onion mixture. Cover; chill 1 to 4 days.
