Yield Makes 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 medium beets (about 10 ounces)
1 4-ounce piece fresh horseradish, peeled
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Scrub beets and trim stems to 1/2 inch. Place beets in a medium saucepan and add water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium high and cook at a gentle boil until beets are tender when pierced with a small, sharp knife, about 45 minutes. Remove heat, drain, and set beets aside until cook enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, grate horseradish on the medium-size holes of a box grater. Place horseradish in a small bowl and stir in vinegar, salt, and sugar.
  • Peel beets and grate on the medium-size holes of the box grater. Add to horseradish mixture, stirring well to combine. Keep covered to preserve flavor and refrigerate until needed.
