This easy recipe from Mae Flint of Ionia, Michigan can't be beet . Mae marinates canned beets in a mixture of vinegar, clove, pepper and bay leaf for a tart side dish that is sure to appeal to even finicky eaters. Ingredients:
1/2 cup white wine vinegar |
1/4 cup water |
1 bay leaf |
1 whole clove |
1/2 to 1 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
sugar substitute equivalent to 3 tablespoons sugar |
1 can (15 ounces) sliced beets, drained |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, bring the vinegar, water, bay leaf, clove, pepper and salt to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. 2. Remove from the heat; stir in sugar substitute until dissolved. Pour over beets. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or overnight. Discard bay leaf and clove. Serve with a slotted spoon. Yield: 4 servings. |
