Influx of Beetroot

viv0147

I bought fresh beetroot from Lidl 4 in a pack cooked and peeled so I just sliced them and put them in a bowl. So what would I put over them I am guessing vinegar if that's right what else would you suggest, so they will keep in the fridge for a while, I live alone so I assume some kind of pickling! Please advise. Thanks

Shame to pickle fresh beets.

Finely chopped one and an orange and mix with grated carrot - use as a salad dish.

Warm a couple and have with a hot meal as a vegetable.

As above, just use a a veg cooked veg, not a pickled one

They'll freeze fine too, then you can use them as you like.. yum, beetroot soup (borscht). Or roast beetroot. Or use in cake. mmmm

I keep beetroot from a vacuum pack in a sterile jam jar in the fridge if I have some left over. I like them in a cheese sandwich but they are also really nice diced, heated up in a little butter and given a good grind of sea salt and black pepper as a hot veg, particularly good with pork products and meatloaf.

I always freeze them as we can't use them quick enough. Slice and open freeze, then pop into a bag. Then just defrost as much as you want.

I bought a pack of sweet smoked beetroot.

I stood and ate half a pack with a fork and put the rest in a wrap

For me, it has to be corned beef & beetroot sandwiches.
