Oh, Margaret - you really know how to hurt. :(
I have pickled beets in the refrigerator and two more cans in the pantry!
(I know I can't convert Barb - but sweet you?).

To All Whose Feelings I Hurt When I Complained About Beets, sorry, but
I still cannot stand eating or even smelling them.
My husband loved beets, as a salad, a vegetable or Borscht. I would
make a salad for him, with cooked beets which I grated and to which I
added grated horse radish, grated apple, vinegar, a pinch of sugar and
caraway seeds. I would leave the whole mess in a covered bowl and
drain off the liquid before serving the salad.

Maragaret, I'm glad you posted how you made the salad. I've got to try it!

Red, green or golden apples? It sounds heavenly! Thank you, St.

Margaret, believe me my feelings weren't hurt - I was just teasing you. I
think the whole "beet war" is funny. I know I can't stand to be around
them when they're cooking - it's too earthy a smell for me. Pickled,
though - that's another story!

Oh, Dora, I was teasing you right back. However, I really do not like
them at any time, not even when I am pickled. :o)

Beta vulgaris <and now you know>
Both the root and greens are good sources of vitamins.
Medicinal: Red Beets stimulate the immune system,
possible anti-cancer properties.

Any firm and sour apple will do, such as Winesap or Braeburn. If you
cannot get horseradish root, you can use prepared horseradish, such as
Gold's or Manischewitz. Do not use the extra hot one, only the
original. Good luck with the salad.
