They improve after a month (less sharp than when new)

Hi all,
            for a change, & just as easy; after cooking beetroot, dice it & fill up a jam jar with it. Dissolve 3 cubes of raspberry jelly in 2 fl oz of white vinegar & 2 fl oz water. Pour this over beetroot, cool & then fridge until set. This is great with pork pies, cold meats etc.

That's a great idea Shirazcat.  Can you taste the raspberry and does the vinegar cut the sweetness of the jelly?  Could put into individual moulds for effect.
Cheese makes everything better.

Thanks shirazcat.  Nice and easy too - I used blackcurrant jelly cubes in mine last year.  Of course, homemade redcurrant jelly would be REALLY nice.
