  • Beetroot - how best to preserve

    We have pickled some but they just taste of vinegar
    Is it possible to freeze them

    Not sure, but there's a recipe for beetroot salsa that I saw a work mate looking at the other day.. seems to go well with fish (yuck!) - but planning on trying this. Perhaps that's at least one more meal for you?

    Found it: Panfried fish with fresh beetroot salsa recipe - Recipes - BBC Good Food

      I prefer beetroot pickled in sweet vinegar. Try this recipe, it's delicious after a few months curing

      I use a little less sugar than suggested.

          Store them in a box of damp sand or a clamp?

            They can be frozen but don't freeze that well. If you want to try the larger ones are better than the baby beets which go mushy.

              I have pickled mine in the past but even before opening it goes brown, why is this. The jars are done up really tight. ( I have to have help to undo them )

                Out if interest (as I will soon be pulling my beetroot) does beetroot and chocolate cake freeze well? I was planning on making extra and popping it in the freezer.
