Does anyone out there have any words of wisdom on pickling beets?  We just got a bunch of pick your own beets and want to pickle them.  I have whey and also culture starter from body ecology I could use.  We read the recipe in Nourishing Traditions (bake, peel, cutup, jar, etc).  I liked the size of Dan's pickled beets (and flavor) so I thought I would only quarter them instead of cutting them up smaller. 

Anyway, I just haven't done any pickling before and thought I'd seek some advice.

thanks,

Natasha
