Ingredients
1 ½ lbs beets, topped and scrubbed2 cups apple cider vinegar2 tbsp dark honey (like buckwheat)⅓ cup sugar½ tbsp Kosher salt¼ tsp ground allspice½ tsp coarse-cracked black peppercorns¼ tsp turmeric
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Wrap beets in foil and place on a cookie sheet.
Bake 50-60 minutes, until tender. Cool until you can handle them, then peel and cut into pieces (I used cylinder beets so I just cut slices).
In a large pot, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil.
Add beets and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes.
Ladle into pint jars (top off with more vinegar if needed) and seal.
Can in a waterbath 30 minutes.
Let sit at least 2 days before enjoying - these get better as they age!
