Ingredients

  • 1 lb cooked beets (vacuum-packed or canned, drained), finely grated
  • 1/4 cup prepared horseradish (jarred)
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Squeeze any excess moisture from 1 lb finely grated cooked beets (vacuum-packed or canned, drained) using paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the squeezed cooked beets (vacuum-packed or canned, drained), 1/4 cup prepared horseradish (jarred), and 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar. Stir well.

  3. 3

    Add 1 tsp granulated sugar and 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Taste and adjust — add more horseradish for extra heat or more vinegar for tartness.

  4. 4

    Transfer to a jar, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving so the flavors meld. Keeps refrigerated for up to 1 week.
