I bought the small plants from Gorden Riggs, Todmorden and planted them out. I now have about twenty Beetroot, some bigger than others so I have pulled the 4 biggest ones up today and was thankful to find your cooking instructions, because I hadnt a clue what to do with them. Having cooked them I decided to pickle 3 and am very pleased with the results. One left cooling in a dish,.... I decided to taste it...... wow, it will be lucky if it makes it till tea-time....delicious. Thankyou yuuuuum! This is the first year i have had a go at growing my own vedge.

Do you think it is necessary to use the amount of sugar you advise or could I half the amount? Or even use less? I guess what I mean to ask is does it make much difference to the preservation or is it just a matter of flavour? Hope you can help! Thanks.

I put a few chilli seeds in but they are not vital. The jelly is great as well. Instead of using plain vinegar, get a raspberry jelly and make that with the vinegar.
