    Source of Recipe


    Aunt Saunny
    SERVES 4
    3 medium fresh beets
    1/4 cup sugar
    2 Tbs. cornstarch
    1/4 to 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
    1/4 cup apple cider
    1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
    1/2 cup raisins
    Fresh oregano sprigs for garnish

    1. In large pot, boil beets until knife easily pierces them to their
    centers, 30 to 40 minutes. With slotted spoon, remove beets. Reserve 1/2
    cup cooking water. Set beets aside until cold enough to handle. Peel
    and cut into 1/2-inch slices.
    2. In medium saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch, ginger and 1/2 teaspoon
    salt. Mix in beet liquid. Add cider and vinegar. Set pan over
    medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly with wooden spoon, until mixture
    thickens and almost boils, 2 to 3 minutes. Add beets and raisins. Stir
    until beets are heated through, but do not let sauce boil, about 2
    minutes. Garnish with fresh oregano sprigs and serve warm.
