Quick Pickled Radishes And Beets Recipes

QUICK PICKLED RADISHES

Steps:

• Add chopped or sliced radish to a large mason jar or glass container. Set aside.
• To a small saucepan add distilled white vinegar, water, salt, and sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir to fully dissolve salt and sugar. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more salt or sugar to taste.
• Pour the brine over the radish, ensuring the slices are fully submerged. If needed, add more vinegar or a little water to cover.
• Seal well and shake to combine. Then refrigerate for at least 1 hour. The flavors will deepen and intensify the longer it marinates. Best flavor is achieved after 24 hours.
• Will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks (sometimes longer). Not freezer friendly.

• In a large saucepan, bring vinegar, beets, salt, sugar, fennel seeds, and 1/2 cup water to a boil, stirring until salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in radishes. Refrigerate, covered, at least 8 hours and up to 1 week before serving.

BEET AND RADISH PICKLES

Steps:

Add vinegar, salt, sugar, and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil, stirring until salt and sugar are dissolved, about 1 minute. Pour brine over beets and radishes and let cool. Cover and chill at least 8 hours before serving.

PICKLED RADISHES

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, salt, peppercorns and cloves in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and stir until the sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully add the radishes and onion, bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Using a ladle or spouted measuring cup, transfer to a heatproof 1-pint jar. Let sit, uncovered, until cooled to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Serve or close the jar and keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

ROASTED BEET SALAD WITH FLASH-PICKLED RADISHES AND CHARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place beets in a small baking dish. Add just enough water to cover bottom of pan, drizzle beets with 2 Tbsp. oil, and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Cover pan tightly with aluminum foil (if foil is touching beets, line it with parchment paper) and bake beets until a knife can pierce them with little resistance, 55-70 minutes. Let cool slightly, then use a paper towel to slip skins off beets. Cut each beet into 1/4-inch-thick wedges and place in a medium bowl.
• While beets bake, heat a small skillet over medium and toast walnuts until fragrant, shaking pan often, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and coarsely chop, then transfer to a plate and drizzle with 1 Tbsp. oil; toss to coat. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp. salt.
• Whisk lemon juice, mustard, 2 tsp. vinegar, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Whisk in 2 Tbsp. oil in a slow stream. While beets are still warm, toss with half of the vinaigrette to coat. Season with 1 tsp. pepper and 1/4 tsp. salt.
• Place chard stems and radishes into 2 separate medium bowls and cover each with 1/2 cup vinegar and a pinch of salt. Let rest 5 minutes, then transfer vegetables to paper towels to blot, discarding excess vinegar. Combine vegetables in one of the medium bowls and toss with remaining vinaigrette.
• Divide beets among 4 plates and top with walnuts, pickled radishes and chard stems, goat cheese, and top with a few grinds of black pepper.
• Beets can be roasted and refrigerated up to 3 days in advance. Vinaigrette can be made and refrigerated up to 5 days in advance.
