Ultra Easy Pickled Beets



This is so easy it is embarrassing.  I oven roasted some beets, cooled them and peeled them.  I had pickled sweet ginger for sushi in the refrigerator.  I made a simple mixture of rice vinegar with a tablespoon of sugar and heated it until the sugar dissolved.  I placed the sliced, roasted beets in a container with a lid, added some whole and chopped pickled sweet ginger and then added the sweetened rice vinegar to cover.  After a couple of days in the marinade, the beets were ready.  They are delicious!  And the red coloured ginger could be used as a garnish on your sushi plate or in a salad.

I am also honoured to be recognized by one of my favourite blogs lostpastremembered.  You have to visit her especially if you have an historical interest in food.  I am learning so much.  Thank you!

And in the custom of receiving accolades, I am passing this on to some of my other favourites:
Memoria at Mangio de Sola
Mamatkamal at Moroccan Cuisine

They have such wonderful recipes, cooking and presentation ideas.  Please check them out.

  10. Oh golly, what beautiful beets. I can never get enough of them and the different ways to prepare them! YUM! I appreciate your comment on the Red Velvet Cupcakes. I don't like posting negative things about recipes, but felt that since it was a group challenge, that I had to give my honest input. I will check back in with you tomorrow for your results of what you're going to make!!! Bye for now, Roz
