INSTRUCTIONS

NOTES: Easy Pickles are not meant for long-term storage. Refrigerate and enjoy them within a week or so. For this recipe, thinly sliced vegetables work best. Try shaving carrots with a vegetable peeler, thinly slicing radishes, onions, cucumber, peppers or cauliflower. The longer the vegetables sit, the stronger the pickle flavor!

Boil the vinegar, sugar, salt and seasonings of choice until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Set aside to cool while you prep your vegetables.

Arrange vegetables in jars and pour pickling liquid over top. Secure with a lid and let rest in the fridge overnight.
