pickled beets
Preserved crimson vegetables
Pickled beets are beets preserved in vinegar brine, typically with sugar and spices.
They're served cold as a side dish or salad component, with a sweet-tart flavor and deep magenta color that stains everything they touch: The pickled beets bled all over my potato salad.
