QUICK PICKLE

How to

Love the tangy, crunchy goodness of pickles? Check out this amazing guide on quick pickling fruits and vegetables. 

INGREDIENTS – Vinegar – Water – Sugar – Salt – Herbs – Spices – Veggies or fruit for pickling

STEP 1

Prep your fruit or veggies. The more surface area exposed to the brining solution, the quicker the fruit or vegetable will take on the desired tangy flavor.

STEP 2

Make a brine in a pot on the stovetop. An easy rule of thumb to remember is equal parts water to vinegar when making a quick pickle brine. Salt and sugar can be adjusted to taste. For four cups of liquid, two tablespoons of sugar and two teaspoons of sea salt is a good starting place.

STEP 3

Pack the prepared fruit or vegetables tightly into a glass jar along with any chosen flavoring agents. Leave a half-inch space between the rim of the jar and the top of the produce.

STEP 4

Add the brine to the jars.

STEP 5

Wait: A 24 to 48 hour incubation time will provide the best tangy pickled flavor but this can be adjusted based on needs and taste preferences.
