goes very well with ox breast and Reiberdatschi

You make a broth from water, vinegar, salt, and sugar, add the peeled and grated beets, and cook the beets with all the spices until tender. Be careful, test the beets often; if the beets aren’t cooked enough, they won’t taste good. If they’re cooked too long, they’ll turn into a mush.
