Middle Eastern Pickled Turnips Recipe

In a medium-sized pot, add the water, Kosher salt, and bay leaves.

Heat on medium heat, stirring for about 3 to 5 minutes until salt is completely dissolved.

Let cool completely then add the vinegar.

In a large container with a tight fitting lid, add your turnips and beets.

Add the garlic. This can be a very rough chop since it is only for seasoning.

Pour the liquid into the container. Let sit for 5 days.

Best served refrigerated.
