    How do I pickle beets?

    Community Answer
    Place peeled beets into a mason jar. Pour in vinegar, seasonings and a few pinches of sugar and salt. Seal and wait at least one week.

  • Question
    Can I drink boiled beetroot juice?
    Community Answer
    Yes, if you like the taste of it. It has high nutritional value as well, which would be lost if you did not drink it.

  • Question
    If I boil root beet, can I drink the juice?
    Community Answer
    The water that you boil the beets is in safe to drink, but it is not the same thing as beet juice and won't taste very good.

  • Question
    I have already peeled my beets. Can I still boil them?
    CurtM
    Community Answer
    Absolutely! In fact, it will likely take less time to cook them through since they no longer have the thick skin to insulate them.

  • Question
    Will boiling beets stain my saucepan?
    CurtM
    Community Answer
    It shouldn't, unless it's especially old or of poor quality. Most saucepans are made from stainless steel or brushed with a nonstick coating for precisely this purpose.
