  • 3 Tips for the Best Quick Pickled Beets

    Aside from giving the beets at least 24 hours to marinate and develop their flavors, here are a couple of tips to help you get the best result.

  • Choose the freshest beets possible. When shopping for beets, opt for ones that are medium or small in size (if using smaller beets use 6 beets instead of 3), as larger beets tend to be tougher in texture and blander You also want to look for deep red skin, minimal blemishes, and bright green leaves – all indicators the beets are packed with flavor!
  • Slice the beets into small pieces. Instead of slicing big chunks of beets, slice the beets into smaller pieces. This will help them absorb the marinade more efficiently.
  • Remove the skin. Nix the skin for a smoother, more evenly-textured pickled beet.
