More Suggestions On Canning Beets By Miss Bonner
Beets should be young and uniform in size with tops trimmed. Recommend Crosby Egyptian or Detroit Dark Red as good varieties. Steam beets under 15 pounds pressure for 15 to 20 minutes, peel and drop hot into a spiced vinegar made from 1 gallon 4 percent vinegar, 5 cups sugar, 5 teaspoons mixed spices. Pack jars and seal immediately. Causes of poor color include low raw stock color and steaming at low temperature.
