Keeping Pickled Beets Fresh in Storage

The key to keeping your beets fresh for as long as possible is storing them in an airtight jar. You can use a clamp jar like this one or a standard screw-top like this one. No matter which you use, make sure to seal it in between uses so that the beets don’t soak up any lingering smells in the fridge. When stored properly, they should keep for anywhere between 2-3 weeks.
