Sorry about this folks.

How do you pickle beetroot.
I remember me nan doing it and her saying you tear the leaves but leave some stalk otherwise they will bleed.
Thats all i remember.
I love beetroot so could someone be ever so kind and explain it to me.

thankyou

how long do you cook for just till soft what kind of vinegar

Adam try cooking the beetroot in the oven in a baking tray half filled with water and covered with tin foil. They are much sweeter that way and you can stick a fork in to the to see if they are soft enough, about 40 mins at 180.

The vinegar you use is white vinegar.
