Peeling causes them to bleed. Leave two inches of stem on and leave the end on. Wash, put largest on bottom of pot, boil till skin comes off easily, put in cold water. Stem and root rubs off, trim if needed.
Stuck these in the buried brken freezers under an awning, six half gallon jars, pulled the last one out at beginning of spring, temp stayed perfect, we love your recipe, simple and delicious
Interesting. I roast my beets in the oven to concentrate the flavor and the skins slip right off when I rinse them after. My recipe for pickled beets is quite spicy with cinnamon sticks, allspice berries, mustard seed, white onion sliced thin, and all kinds of good stuff. My mouth is watering for them now. Thanks for showing your process. ~ Lisa
Greg! The cutting process was a crime 😂 you must have a lot of beets to cut that much off! This is the first video I have seen! I am looking forward to seeing the gardening video! Good video- looks Simple
An old guy he showed me you just need to wash and take the leaves off Then cook This way the beet is all sealed you loose less color But not only that after they are cooked they will peel still very easily including the top and bottom Then if anything does stick its the bad spots that stick to the beet You just trim it then but this only happens 1 out of 10 beets usually
@@maritimegardening4887 your welcome i used to peel them like carrots And use the water to bring color black like you did And my friend showed me cutting before cooking bleeds all the color out No cuts color remains very bright even if you dont use the cooking water Muscle memory stuff is great to do but doing it with others we can learn new tricks Sometimes it works for ya sometime it doesn't lol I don't like harvesting and canning it all at once Sometimes it's not all ready at once so i do my canning in small batches too Gets done this way lol Much love xoxox happy harvesting we have frost tomorrow night real bad tonight a touch so busy harvesting tenders have fun good luck
People who see me use a paring knife tend to freak out, thinking that I am going to cut myself. I'm with you on this one. Using it this way gives me control of the knife. I know exactly where the blade is and I never get cut. It scares me to try cutting away from myself. I feel like I have no control, especially with carrots, because there are bumps that grab the knife in weird ways.
I used your ingredient recipe and they came out awesome, I see u changed the beginning of the video after you seen the skins slip off, I think, I thought I wrote the recipe down , so happy I searched again for it, as it's beet time again, happy canning
Surely you don’t need to do the canning process if you have sterilised your jars and ring them poured boiling vinegar over the cooked beetroot beetroot the sealed.
Yes, just google "pickled beets with no sugar" and you'll find lots of recipes I would imagine. Of course, if you're not diabetic - it will probably taste better with the sugar.

I have one left myself :)
You don't need to cut the ends off, all the skin will slide off after boiling and you save the time you are cutting
Yes, never cut they bleed out
I love how you make everything easy.

Sounds great!
Can you please share your recipe?

Simple
Thanks

Then cook
This way the beet is all sealed you loose less color
But not only that after they are cooked they will peel still very easily including the top and bottom
Then if anything does stick its the bad spots that stick to the beet
You just trim it then but this only happens 1 out of 10 beets usually
I'll have to try that thanks!
@@maritimegardening4887 your welcome i used to peel them like carrots

No cuts color remains very bright even if you dont use the cooking water
Muscle memory stuff is great to do but doing it with others we can learn new tricks
Sometimes it works for ya sometime it doesn't lol
I don't like harvesting and canning it all at once
Sometimes it's not all ready at once so i do my canning in small batches too
Gets done this way lol
Much love xoxox happy harvesting we have frost tomorrow night real bad tonight a touch so busy harvesting tenders have fun good luck
Thanks for making your videos! I enjoy them very much. Southern Maine here.

The best thing to do on Valentine's Day, binge watch hot content makers, like Greg☺ Love beets gotta do this you make it so easy...thanks!
Thanks Greg. Great job. Good info. I just recently discovered your channel so I have a lot of catch-up to enjoy.
Enjoy man :) Glad you found me !!!
I skip your first step,,,boil then,, all skins come right off, with no waste,,,,all that tough stuff will also come right off, great video
I'll have to try that
I was just going to comment that. It will make it even faster.

Awesome beet video. I'll sure try these steps.
Thanks
Thanks for the peeling lesson, Greg! 😁👍
Thanks for another great video - I've peeled potatoes in this way but never thought of using it for beets - brilliant!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks! Maybe we will get enough to try this!
I hope so
I just made them! Very good!!
Great!!
Lol ya the squeeze lol it works perfectly for these long beets love them :)
i grow golf ball size beetroot i leave about two inches of stalk and i dont cut the roots then boil ,we all have our methods
Thank you.. perfect
You're welcome!
I just scrub them and leave the skin on. They still pickle fine and you loose less beetroot
Don’t cut of the tops and bottoms, not necessary, just wash well.
Do you wash the beets prior to boiling?
Yes very quickly
Were the beets cleaned before cooking? Just curious about the beet water being clean. Thank you.
yes
Fork tender 😃
You would be a great woodcarver. Do you carve wood?
I do a little bit of that but I'm not that good at it. I shape wood into tools that I need, but nothing I do is a work of art
Surely you don’t need to do the canning process if you have sterilised your jars and ring them poured boiling vinegar over the cooked beetroot beetroot the sealed.
That's what recommended by the experts.
Who doesn’t know boil and peel? And don’t cut all that off. It takes a lot of time regardless
Could one leave out the sugar? ( thinking of diabetics)
Yes, just google "pickled beets with no sugar" and you'll find lots of recipes I would imagine. Of course, if you're not diabetic - it will probably taste better with the sugar.
Don't peel them
Greg, you are wasting too much good beets , I can't even look at it.
Sorry
