Quick Pickled Veggies

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups sliced vegetables (such as onions, garlic scapes, cucumber, radishes, carrots, cauliflower, beans, beets, and jalepenos)
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tbsp honey or sugar
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1-2 garlic cloves
  • 1 1/2 tsp aromatics and spices (This is where you can start to experiment with what you like, or buy a premade mix from the store. Think fresh dill or dill seeds, mustard seeds, coriander seeds, peppercorns, whole cloves, allspice and chilli flakes. I like to use a mix of dill, coriander seeds, mustard seeds and a few peppercorns.)

Instructions

  • Add veggies and aromatics of choice to a glass jar.
  • In a small saucepan, heat vinegar, water, honey/sugar and salt until it starts to boil and the sugar/salt is dissolved. Careful not to overboil the liquid. Pour over veggies, making sure to completely submerge them. Allow to cool on the counter before refrigerating.
  • Chill at least four hours before enjoying. These will keep up to 2-3 weeks in the fridge.
