Beet caviar is finger licking good

Great recipe for both appetizer and salad! Finger-licking beet caviar for the winter is a wonderful recipe. This preparation can be made at any time of the year, conveniently in small portions. It is especially relevant in the spring, when it is necessary to process root crops that have withered over the winter, or in the fall, if there is nowhere to store the crop. Beetroot caviar is an excellent appetizer; caviar makes delicious sandwiches; you can add it to borscht, which significantly saves cooking time.

For dinner I made finger-licking beet caviar for the winter. Only we ate it right away and didn’t leave it for the winter) Now I’m thinking of making a larger batch and rolling up a few jars for future use. For caviar I took one onion and one large beet. At first I was afraid to grind vegetables in a blender, I thought it would turn out to be puree. But, both the face and the beets turned out in the form of small “grains”. This is a very unusual consistency) It was the first time I fried onions in this form; they cook quickly due to the large amount of juice. Therefore, the beets must be chopped in advance. While stewing, I added tomato paste diluted with water, a little salt and black pepper. Simmered until the liquid evaporated. It turned out delicious and unusual. The consistency of the beets did not turn into puree, they remained semi-solid pieces. It's pleasant to chew. Tastes like beet salad. I didn't have enough sourness, next time I'll add lemon juice. I liked the recipe, I recommend it!

Thanks for the recipe, it’s quite simple and must be very tasty! A question has arisen: your recipe states that you can use tomato paste instead of ketchup. Is the proportion 1:3 1 part tomato paste and 3 parts water, or vice versa 3 parts tomato paste and 1 part water?

Can this caviar be added to borscht or vinaigrette?

What kind of jar does 350 g of beets make? Is caviar stored well without vinegar?
