Oh, yes, seal them while beetroot still warm in jars, turn upside down for about 1 to 2 minutes then put away in fridge to pickle for a week before you eat – Kali Orexi – Bon Apetite Angie

Make the vinegar liquid first, strain, let cool, and then peel the warm beetroot and place warm sliced beetroot or whole baby beets in the warm sterilised jars. Do not let the beetroot go cold before peeling as they will be hard to peel. Cheers @Ger:

@susan kathleen garbutt: We tried it with wine vinegar I think its better. Perhaps white vinegar ia a bit too harsh

I have pickled beetroot for the first time this year. I have used malt vinegar and I find the result is too much acidity and bitter. Is there anything I can do?

I found that if you heat the the jar of pickled beetroot in the microwave (with the lid of ) then put lid on, not to tight turn upside down then back upright, loosen lid to let air out then tighten, you will form a vacuum seal as it cools , the pop up button on top will go in just the same as shop bought pickle and I think it keeps a lot longer !!!
ps don't boil in micro just get it hot.
