Pickled Beets

Submitted by Tona C.

"Even though this is my Grandma Cupp's recipe, I always associate my Aunt Sissie with beets. Maybe it's because she and Uncle Bill always had such a wonderful vegetable garden. I can close my eyes and still see her sitting in the porch swing peeling beets. From the kitchen of Viola Washam Cupp."

Easy to make, good recipe. I sliced the beets rather thin and furthermore I heated the vinegar together with the spices, that way the salt and sugar fully dissolved. I am very pleased I found this. Thanks for posting. Made for PAC-Spring 2010.
