5th Step
Stirring occasionally, bring the mixture to a boil while dissolving the sugar and salt. Allow the pickling liquid to percolate for a few minutes so the flavors can combine. Then, remove the object from the heat and allow it to settle to room temperature.
6th Step
Place the sliced beets in a jar or container made of spotless glass. Pour the chilled pickling liquid over the beets and submerge them entirely. If necessary, position a small weight (such as a clean stone or a weight made from disinfected glass) on top of the beets to keep them submerged in the liquid.
7th Step
Place the securely sealed container in the refrigerator. Allow the beets to pickle for at least 24 hours; however, the longer they remain, the more flavorful they will become.
8th Step
Once preserved to your satisfaction, the beets can be stored for up to one month in the refrigerator.
