Ingredients

• 6 cups cooked, sliced beets (or 3 cans)
• 24 whole cloves
• 1 cup vinegar
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
• 3 Tbsp. ketchup
• 3 Tbsp. cooking oil (optional)
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• Dash of salt

Directions

1. Drain beets and reserve 1 1/2 cups of liquid. Place beets and liquid in a saucepan along with all other ingredients. Stir well and cook using a medium heat for about 3 minutes, or until liquid thickens. Remove from heat and let cool. Store in a glass container with a tight fitting lid in the refrigerator, or seal in pint jars to store longer.

2. Variation: Reduce number of cloves to taste. Substitute artificial sweetener for half of sugar.
