  7. Cover tightly (IF completely cool) and place in the refrigerator. They say 5 to 7 days is best for the flavors to meld together but they rarely last that long!
  8. It's such a favorite here! I had some left over for tonight's dinner as a side too!
  9. The canned beets and a bowl full of the pickled beets.

Once the beets from my garden have been used up, I buy canned beets -whole or sliced, and add them to bread & butter pickle juice I've saved. I love making use of something that normally gets dumped down the drain.

I find I can add a new can of beets to the same pickle juice several times, before it isn't strong enough to really flavor the beets anymore.

Excellent! I also add whole hard boiled eggs into my juice after for pickled eggs too. One could probably pickle lots of other veggies ( carrots, cauliflower, etc.) in this juice as well! Good reminder! Thanks for your comment!
