The ingredients for Beet Kvass are:

1 small beet
1 tsp salt
1 TBSP maple syrup
2 TBSP whey
2 tsp ginger root
enough spring water to fill up the quart jar

Here is how you make Beet Kvass:

Cut beet into matchstick-sized pieces. It?s important not to cut them into smaller pieces as the surface area of the vegetable then becomes too large and encourages alcoholic fermentation (not our purpose here). Put all the ingredients into a quart glass jar, fill remaining space with water up to an inch from the top of the neck, and cap.Let remain on counter for three days. Once each day, uncap and recap. After third day, refrigerate.It?s very important to use non-chlorinated water. If chlorine is present, it will kill the good bacteria and lacto-fermentation will fail.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SQUISHYTOFU.
