Ingredients

• 200 grams Fresh horseradish root
• 2 medium-sized Red beets
• 3 tablespoons White vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel the red beets and cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Place the beets in a medium saucepan, cover them with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 3

While the beets are cooking, peel the horseradish root using a vegetable peeler and cut it into smaller chunks for easier grating.

Step 4

Grate the horseradish root using a fine grater or a food processor fitted with a grating blade. Set it aside in a bowl.

Step 5

Once the beets are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly until they are safe to handle. Using a paper towel or your fingers, rub the skins off the beets.

Step 6

Grate the cooked beets using a fine grater or food processor and combine them with the grated horseradish in a bowl.

Step 7

Add the white vinegar, sugar, salt, and water to the beet and horseradish mixture. Stir well to combine, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more vinegar for tanginess, sugar for sweetness, or salt for balance.

Step 9

Transfer the prepared horseradish with beets into an airtight jar or container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Serve as a condiment with your favorite dishes, and store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
