Best Libbys Stovetop Pickled Beets Recipes
SIMPLE, EASY PICKLED BEETS
During the winter when fresh beets are not available, this is what I make. You can use beets out of the garden, just cook them, peel and slice them and reserve some of the juice that you cook them in. I love the way these taste. And they will keep in an airtight container in the 'fridge for quite a while.

Steps:
- Drain beets, saving the juice. Add water if necessary to make 1-1/2 cups of juice. Set aside.
- Slice onion and combine with the beets in a glass or non-reactive bowl.
- In a sauce pan, heat the beet juice and the vinegar until steaming (not boiling) then add the sugar.
- Stir to dissolve the sugar and heat just to a boil.
- Pour the hot juice over the beets and onions, stir and let cool.
- When cool, cover and refrigerate. They taste best when they have sat for 24 hours.
LIBBY'S STOVETOP PICKLED BEETS
This is a very simple recipe for pickled beets from Elizabeth Corkery, of Groton, Massachusetts. The cooking process prevents the bleeding usually associated with working with beets and is much easier than roasting beets in the oven and peeling them afterwards. These beets get better as they sit in the refrigerator. They look very pretty in a pressed glass dish. Note: Leave part of the top stem and tail on beets to prevent them from bleeding during cooking. Golden beets or candy cane beets make a nice presentation with less bleeding. source unknown
