I put some asparagus in vinegar with garlic, red pepper flakes, and pickling spice a couple weeks ago. I just cracked it open, and they’re fantastic!
I also started a batch of sauerkraut today with garlic and caraway seeds in a brine. Gonna keep an eye on it and hope it comes out alright. I like that it’s a live fermentation, and will hopefully be full of good probiotics.
What’s your favorite thing to pickle, and in what?
I started pickling red grapes. I had never heard of it until I saw a TikTok about it. I have tried two different recipes, one sweet and one salty. I also did a combination of the two. The sweet is my favorite.
Pickled Grapes (Sweet)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 Cups Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Cup Water
1 Cup Sugar
Pickling Spice
1 Quart Washed Red Seedless Grapes
1 Sliced Red Onion
Directions:
Dissolve sugar in hot water. Cool water totally. While water is cooling wash your grapes and fill a quart jar, place the onion at the top, then pour in the pickling spice. Once the water is fully cooled, mix in the vinegar and pour over the grapes. Put on your lid and place in the refrigerator for about a week.
Oh, that does sound interesting! I might give that a shot soon.
