Ingredients
- 3 large fresh beets (or 5 medium beets, cooked & cooled, peeled and chopped into 1-inch cubes)
- 1 cup filtered water
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt or sea salt
- 1/4 whey (from draining yogurt)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Place beets into the canning jar.
-
Step 2: In a small bowl, mix the salt and water until salt is dissolved. Add the whey.
-
Step 3: Pour salt mixture over the beets. The mixture should cover the beets and the beets should be 1-inch below the top of the jar.
-
Step 4: Seal the canning jar, place on the counter, out of the way, and let sit for 2-3 days. Taste. If agreeable, put in fridge. They will last awhile, due to the whey.
