Fermented Red Beet Juice

• 1kg (35oz or 6-7 medium size beets) red beets
• 1l (4 cups) water (chlorine-free)
• 5-6 gloves of garlic
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 tbsp salt

Directions:

Scrub the beets and peel. Cut off the top and tail, then chop or slice them in the size you prefer. Then place them in the clean glass jar and cover with salted water. When you are placing chopped beets, add the garlic and other ingredients. Cover the jar with a cheese cloth or clean cotton kitchen cloth. Leave the jar at room temperature for 5-6 days. It is good to check every day because it can be ready earlier or later depending on the storage temperature. When it is ready, separate the juice from the beets. Juice should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed over the month. You can use the beets for a salad.

When ready to serve, dilute 1:1 with vegetable stock and warm up. It can’t be allowed to boil because it changes the color.
