This has become my GO TO recipe for pickled golden beets now. Best I have ever made or eaten. Thanks so much for the recipe. Just luscious and wonderful to eat.

Thanks Sue! So glad you enjoy the recipe!
Do you store the beets in the same liquid used to boil?
Yes. The liquid should be used for refrigeration storage as well as canning.
When it says 7-10 days, is that how long I should let them sit for before I eat them, or is that the shelf life? How long should I let them sit for before I eat them? Thanks
Hi Ashley – Just saw this other question – a safe shelf life is 7-10 days in the fridge unless you decide to can them. Hope that helps! (And you can eat them right away.)
I made these today and both myself and my husband love it thank u so much
You’re very welcome Sandra! So glad you enjoyed the recipe!
How long do they need to sit for before I can eat them?

Hi Ashley – You can eat them right away – these are pickled not fermented.
Hello! Are the beets in this recipe pre cooked? Or are they peeled from fresh?
Hi Carissa – This recipe is made with fresh (uncooked) golden beets.
Can these be water bath processed and keep for months??
Hi Darlene – We haven’t canned the beets ourselves to be able to say for sure. Here is a link to the Ball website that includes lots of information about canning foods and hopefully that can direct you to the best and safest method for long term storage options for vegetables like beets. http://www.freshpreserving.com/home.aspx Hope that helps!
