Ingredients:

4- 5 large turnips or 8 small turnips, sliced in 1” x 1/2 “ pieces

1 red beet

1 Tablespoon Kosher salt

Filtered water

Distilled white vinegar

Directions:

Slice the turnips into 1” x 1/2” pieces.

Slice the beet into small triangles to differentiate from the turnip once everything turns pink.

Place sliced turnips and beet in a large empty jar.

Fill half the glass jar with filtered water and half with the white vinegar.

Add salt.

Place the jar on the counter for one week and then refrigerate.

Turn the jar upside down then right side up several times to mix the juices daily until ready to refrigerate.
